Bruno Fernandes tells Pep Guardiola to shut up during Manchester derby

Bruno Fernandes tells Pep Guardiola to shut up as both were seen arguing on the sidelines, while Manchester City were losing to arch-rivals.

In one of the most intense clashes between both Manchester clubs, the Red Devils came out to be victorious at the Old Trafford against their local rivals in the Premier League.

The stakes were high, hence tensions sored when Manchester United’s new sensation Bruno Fernandes was caught signalling Pep Guardiola to keep quiet after both were seen arguing on the sidelines.

Often polite on the field Fernandes pressed his finger against his lips to signal the message to Manchester City gaffer. It is alleged that Guardiola was trying to rile him in the 85th minute and the Manchester United midfielder simply smiled and requested silence.

This moment between Fernandes and Guardiola has caused a storm on social media, with Manchester United fans praising the Portuguese International for this.

Anyway, the Red Devils have every bragging right over their local rivals, hence Fernandes behaviour seems just. Moreover, with this win, Manchester United have claimed the double Premier League victory over Manchester United in over a decade.

Ole Solskjaer’s men were at the pole position since the initial minutes of the game and maintained their position till the end. First, perfect synchronisation between Fernandes and Anthony Martial opened the deadlock.

The score remained the same with both sides creating several chances in the process. But in the end, Manchester United sealed the game with Scott McTominay’s sensational goal in the injury time of the game.

Ederson made an unforgettable error while distributing the ball to Benjamin Mendy, but the ball mistakenly reaches to McTominay, who snipes the ball towards the goal from a distance of at least 35-yards, and the ball dunks inside the net.

The moment certainly embarrassed Ederson. Tonight was surely rough for the Brazilian International as even in the first goal, he was clumsy while diving which helped Manchester United.
