Most chances created and most crosses: 8.9-rated Man Utd whiz branded his nation’s ‘main man’

Manchester United captain Bruno Fernandes shined in Portugal's Nations League victory over Denmark, earning an 8.9 rating on Fotmob, the best of any player on the field. The 32-year-old midfielder, who captained the team in Cristiano Ronaldo's absence, contributed significantly with five chances created, three accurate crosses and two assists.

Additionally, Fernandes demonstrated his all-around skills with 35 accurate passes, three clearances, three recoveries and one block. StatmanDave praised the Red Devils talisman, dubbing him 'Portugal's main man.' Despite recent injury concerns, Fernandes played the full 89 minutes in Copenhagen, where Portugal secured a 4-2 win.

The Manchester United star's impressive performance has eased fears over his fitness, especially as United prepares for a busy October schedule, including a Manchester derby and a Champions League match against Atletico Madrid.
