With less than 15 minutes left before United take on arch-rivals Manchester City at Old Trafford, Bruno Fernandes is once again at the center of it all.
Portugal’s main goalscorer added another assist to his 2025/26 resume at the Theater of Dreams this season, setting up Bryan Mbeumo’s opener in the 65th minute.

Led by interim manager and former midfielder Michael Carrick, the Red Devils were lively throughout despite City’s dominance of the ball, with Fernandes frequently targeting Guardiola’s men on the break throughout the afternoon.
With his latest assist, the 31-year-old Portuguese has already provided nine assists this season, second only to Bayern Munich’s Michael Olise (10) and is the only player in Europe’s top five leagues with more assists.

With United leading 2-0, Bruno continues to cement his legacy in the north-west of England as one of the best and brightest players of the Premier League era.
