Manchester United assistant coach Michael Carrick has praised captain Bruno Fernandes, stating he is "as good as ever" after the midfielder's penalty sparked a second-half revival against Roma in the UEFA Champions League.
Fernandes converted from the spot to ignite United's comeback in the match played on November 7, 2026. The Portuguese international's leadership and quality were highlighted by Carrick, who emphasized the captain's consistent performance levels.
The result keeps United's Champions League campaign on track, with Fernandes once again proving pivotal in crucial moments.
