Bruno: Now we have to build momentum

Following in the footsteps of Alejandro Garnacho at Craven Cottage last season, Bruno was the hero this time around, as he netted a stoppage-time winner for the visitors in a tight-contested affair.

Sparking wild scenes in the process, our 'Portuguese Magnifico' popped up with a vital strike on his 200th appearance for the club, as we returned to winning ways in fine fashion.

Expressing his delight to our MUTV cameras following the win, Bruno explained that above all, bringing three vital points back to Manchester was the most important thing.

“It was really good,” began Fernandes, as he spoke to Zarah Connolly post-match at Craven Cottage.

“Obviously we wanted to win in a different way. We could have created more chances. The last pass, the last moment of when we reach the box, we didn't always decide well.

“But we got our win and we got our goal so that is the most important [thing].”

After recent back-to-back home defeats, responding with victory seemed essential for Erik ten Hag's side, ahead of our vital UEFA Champions League clash with FC Copenhagen in midweek.

Bruno added how building momentum, heading into that tricky test in Denmark, can add fuel to the group for our future endeavours moving forward.

“We have to build momentum, we have been talking about building momentum and we haven't done it yet,” said the skipper.

“Now we know how important it is to get the three points in the Champions League and it will be a tough game because we have already played them at home.

“They are well organised, [a] difficult team to go through, but we hope to get the three points there and we will do everything we can to get three points to go through there.”
