In recent years, West Brom has never been a comfortable opponent of Man Utd. In the first phase of this season, the “red devils” have to rely on the successful penalty from Bruno Fernandes to win all three points. On the night of February 14, when the score was 1-1, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s army almost had a chance at 11 meters. Harry Maguire fell into the host’s penalty area after a collision with Semi Ajayi. Referee Craig Pawson was nearby, handing the team a red jersey. But after using the VAR, he turned the whistle and overruled his decision.
If he receives a penalty, Fernandes has a great chance of completing the double and will be the one to score all three in two games against West Brom. Earlier, at the end of the first half, the Portuguese midfielder shone with a volley of 11 meters close. The ball rolled into the high corner, leaving Sam Johnstone unable to touch the ball.
Although he scored very well, Fernandes could not make Manchester United fans forget that this was the period when he was in decline. In the last eight Premier League games, Fernandes has scored three goals, averaging 0.38 goals per game. Meanwhile, in the first 16 games of the season, he scored 11 goals, a performance of 0.69 goals / game. Fernandes’ slowdown is part of the reason Man Utd tied three and lost one in the last five rounds.
