‘I don’t take [the decision]’ - Bruno apologises to teammates despite disagreeing with red card
Manchester United lost their second home game of the season, losing 3-0 to Tottenham at Old Trafford.
The game, which was dominated by Tottenham, later became one-sided after the dismissal of Bruno Fernandes.
The loss leaves Erik Ten Hag in a difficult position, as his team looks disjointed and have no direction.
Fernandes apology
Fernandes has taken responsibility for his actions but still insists that the referee should have been asked to review his red card decision.
According to the Independent, the Man United star said, “Just [I want] to say I let my teammates down, one man down.
“I appreciate everything was tougher for them. We didn’t start well 11 v 11 and they did very well, we conceded more goals [after] but it was difficult to cover all the spaces.
“We can take away that the resilience of the team was always there and I’m very proud of them.
“Nobody likes to be sent off and it’s not a good feeling seeing my teammates run a lot trying to get the result; that’s what they did, they tried everything.
“I don’t take [the decision] as everyone wants to see it, not with my studs. I take him with my ankle.”
The United captain was issued a red card for a tackle on James Maddison after the Tottenham star tried to get past him.
He is set to miss Man United next three Premier League games but will be available for selection against Porto in their Europa League clash.
