Man Utd fightback can be ‘start of something good’, says Fernandes
The Portuguese midfielder took aim at 'lies' about his relationship with under-fire manager Michael Carrick after a 2-0 comeback win over Roma.
Manchester United fought back from a 2-0 deficit to defeat Roma 3-2 in the Champions League, according to sources. Midfielder Bruno Fernandes credited the comeback for potentially marking the start of something positive for the season, after a nine-game winless run. Fernandes netted from the penalty spot after Roma's first effort was saved following a defensive infringement.
Roma responded with two goals from Matheus Cunha in the final 10 minutes, securing United's Champions League campaign. The Portuguese player addressed concerns about his relationship with under-fire manager Michael Carrick, stating that the manager's decision to bench him was justified and he accepted it. Fernandes concluded that the Roma match should be a turning point for Manchester United's season.
