Bruno Fernandes spotted in heated exchange with Casemiro

Manchester United spotted a heated moment between star players Bruno Fernandes and Casemiro at full-time against Aston Villa – but fans claimed it showed their ‘winning mentality’

Manchester United’s hero Bruno Fernandes was spotted in a heated exchange with Casemiro against Aston Villa.

Fernandes was United’s man of the moment again on Sunday when he arrived unmarked at the back post to notch the Red Devils ahead. However, Sunday proved to be a frustrating afternoon for Erik ten Hag’s side, as they struggled to break down Villa.

United held on for a massive three points, which all but secured Champions League football for next season. But some eagle-eyed fans noticed United’s standards, as Casemiro fumed at the Brazilian following the full-time whistle at Old Trafford.

One fan tweeted: “This is what we like to see!”

“Relentless winners in action there. they can’t bring themselves to pretend not to care about bad process even when we got the result. Two amazing characters to have in your team,” a second added. While a third tweeted: “This is actually wholesome!”

“This is what happens when you have leaders in your team. Questions, accountability, professionalism,” a fourth tweeted. Another added: “Wow! winning mentality!”

Speaking, after the three points, Ten Hag said: “I’m really happy with the points but also with the performance. It was impressive against a Villa side who hadn’t lost in 10 games and scored in every game.

“We were really good on the ball in the first half – magnificent. We created some really good chances through Casemiro, [Marcus] Rashford, Fernandes and [Marcel] Sabitzer, and scored.

“We have to keep going from game to game but I think this is a brilliant week for us.

“Before this week, I would have been happy with a point at Spurs. Of course, when you see the game and you are 2-0 up, you are a bit disappointed. But with this win, it’s a perfect week. So big credit to the team.”
