Bruno Fernandes's goal and assist in Man United's comeback win over Crystal Palace was further evidence that their willingness to sell him last summer was an act of lunacy, writes CHRIS WHEELER
Fernandes slipped a pass through for Matheus Cunha who turned Maxence Lacroix and raced towards goal. VAR official Tony Harrington called Kavanagh to the pitch-side monitor and the decision was a penalty and a red card. If United seize their opportunity to qualify for the Champions League, no player will have come close to guiding them there as Fernandes. Having despatched his seventh goal of the season from the spot, Fernandes turned creator in the 65th minute. United had their sixth win in seven unbeaten games under Carrick and Champions League qualification is now firmly in their grasp.
