The Red Devils endured another embarrassing Premier League result as the Blades’ Jayden Bogle opened the scoring and Ben Brereton Diaz scored his side’s second goal after Harry Maguire’s equalizer.

However, Fernandes took matters into his own hands by scoring two goals in 20 minutes.

The playmaker also set up Rasmus Hojlund’s shot to seal the valuable three points five minutes before the end.

What makes the Portuguese international’s performance even more remarkable is the fact that he played injured.

The former Sporting Lisbon star broke his hand during Sunday’s dramatic FA Cup semi-final against Coventry.

Fernandes injured his right hand after a fall during the clash at Wembley.

United manager Erik ten Hag said the Portuguese star was doubtful for the game against Sheffield United.

According to The timeshowever, Fernandes insisted that he wanted to fight through the pain and play for his team.

The United captain played the entire match for Ten Hag’s team.

Fernandes has received criticism this season due to his frequent outbursts on the pitch.

However, the attacking midfielder’s immense contribution this season is undeniable, with 15 goals and 11 assists in 44 appearances across all competitions.
