Bruno Fernandes matched a major Premier League assist record as Manchester United secured victory over Nottingham Forest at Old Trafford.
Bruno Fernandes provided his 20th assist of the season as Manchester United held off a late fightback from Nottingham Forest to claim an important win.
United created several chances throughout the match, with Bryan Mbeumo finally converting from a Fernandes cross to seal the victory after earlier missed opportunities. Forest pushed late through Morgan Gibbs-White, but the hosts managed to hold on.
The game also marked an emotional Old Trafford farewell for Casemiro, who received a standing ovation after being substituted in the second half. The veteran midfielder leaves the club after winning the FA Cup and League Cup during his time in Manchester.
The result continues United’s push back into Europe’s top competition after a disappointing previous campaign under former manager Ruben Amorim.
Manchester United now turn their focus to strengthening the squad ahead of next season as expectations rise once again at Old Trafford.
