Man Utd star Bruno Fernandes branded a 'hypocrite' and 'clown' after slamming referee as old clip resurfaces | The Sun

BRUNO FERNANDES has been branded a "hypocrite" for his referee criticism after a video of Manchester United being on the good side of a controversial decision surfaced.

The Man Utd captain was furious after the Red Devils were not awarded a penalty when a shot from Alejandro Garnacho struck the arm of Tottenham defender Cristian Romero.



United went on to lose to game 2-0, but post-match Fernandes opted to highlight the penalty decision and demanded an apology from Jon Moss – PGMOL chief of Premier League officials.

He said: "Last week they made a big thing on United not conceding a penalty against Wolves.

"I want to see if Jon Moss also comes to apologise to our dressing room like they said he did to Wolves’ manager."

The 28-year-old will not face any punishment for his comments.

But fans unearthed a clip of his reaction after Wolves were denied a penalty after Andre Onana clattered Wolves attacker Sasa Kalajdzic without winning the ball.

Following the Wolves clash, which United won 1-0, Fernandes said on the incident: "I don't know, it's the way the referee sees it."

And fans were quick to highlight the seeming double standards of the Portuguese playmaker.

One fan said: "Bruno is a laughing stock when it comes to his opinions on anything other than long passes and set pieces."
