Midfielder Bruno Fernandes was ridiculed by the online community for missing a penalty kick in MU’s match against Chelsea at Old Trafford. This was the situation that prevented MU from scoring an opening goal in the first half.

 

The captain of the “Red Devils” continued to be assigned the responsibility of taking penalties after Antony was fouled by Chelsea midfielder Enzo in the penalty area. Bruno Fernandes confidently stepped up to the penalty spot and took his forte.

As is his habit, the Portuguese star still uses the usual “skipping foot” kicking method. However, right from the start, Bruno Fernandes was caught by goalkeeper Robert Sanchez. Chelsea’s goalkeeper simply blocked Bruno Fernandes’s 11m kick, making “The Blues” fans gloat.

 

On the contrary, the MU captain became the focus of criticism even though the “Red Devils” had a 2-1 final victory in this match. One user commented on Twitter: “Disastrous penalty kick from Bruno. Too simple save from Sanchez.” Another opinion is more harsh: “Bruno Fernandes’s penalty was terrible.”Some people have compared Bruno Fernandes’s missed penalty kick with the false kicks of midfielder Jorginho (Arsenal), who has also been continuously failing on the penalty spot recently.

 

“So funny, Bruno Fernandes is making a bad impression like Jorginho and making terrible mistakes,” a MU fan criticized the captain midfielder. Another person quipped: “Bruno Fernandes was so silly when he hopped. The shot was terrible.”
