Manchester United could not end the 2022-2023 season with joy for their fans, who had to witness the team's defeat in the FA Cup final against Manchester City at Wembley. After the match, Bruno Fernandes, who scored the team's only goal of the game, spoke about the feelings of the squad after losing to their city rivals.
The Portuguese has been one of the most reliable players of the season and has become one of Erik ten Hag's favorite players, who has even entrusted him with the captaincy of the team on several occasions, including the FA Cup final. That is why Fernandes has become an authoritative voice in the dressing room.
Erik ten Hag said after the game that although the team is sad, he is proud of his players, but he was upset by the way Manchester City scored the goals, as he considered that both goals were "avoidable".
In that sense, after the defeat against Pep Guardiola's team, the 28-year-old Portuguese international led his teammates to receive the second place medals, showing that he has become an absolute leader inside the Red Devils' dressing room.
The Manchester United captain assured that all his teammates were sad after the FA Cup final, as they wanted the season to end "in a different way". He also acknowledged that although the right steps have been taken for next season, this campaign "was not successful", despite winning a title.
