“After witnessing Douglas Luiz’s actions towards Onana, Bruno Fernandes seized the opportunity to avenge United fans, leaving both Aston Villa fans and Luiz angered. This incident underscores why Bruno Fernandes is our captain.” – Fans take note of Bruno Fernandes’ actions in the 88th minute against Aston Villa.

Fans observed Bruno Fernandes’ actions in the 88th minute during Manchester United’s victory over Aston Villa. Despite United taking an early lead through Rasmus Hojlund and Douglas Luiz leveling the score for the hosts, Scott McTominay, coming off the bench, secured the winning goal, marking three consecutive victories for Erik ten Hag’s team. In the face of late pressure, Fernandes celebrated winning a free-kick.

Notably, in the 88th minute, after being pulled back, Fernandes passionately fist-pumped as if he had just scored the winning goal. Fans were quick to comment on Fernandes’ behavior, with one expressing, “Bruno Fernandes celebrating a foul says an awful lot.” Another stated, “Bruno Fernandes celebrating a foul in his box is all you need to know about how pathetic he is,” and a third added, “Seeing Bruno celebrating a foul.”

Today marked the first occasion Fernandes failed to score at Villa Park, breaking his streak of finding the net in his three previous visits. Despite his goal-scoring prowess, Fernandes frequently faces criticism for both his on-field performances and attitudes, impacting him and his family, as revealed by his older brother, Ricardo.

Ricardo, a 34-year-old NHS worker who also plays in Division One of the Southern Combination Football League for Roffey, disclosed in a recent interview that opposition players target Bruno. He stated to FourFourTwo, “Oh, yes, that happens. I’m not saying every game, but most games. I don’t mind people coming up to me and speaking about my brother. I’m glad Bruno is known around the world.” Ricardo acknowledged the challenges Bruno faces with the criticism and mentioned the temptation to respond but emphasized the importance of letting it go.
