Manchester United fans brutally troll Xavi, who forgot Bruno Fernandes’ name

Barcelona man­ag­er Xavi was bru­tal­ly trolled for for­get­ting the name of Bruno Fer­nan­des after los­ing to Man­ches­ter United.

The Red Dev­ils knocked Barcelona out of the Europa League in a 2–1 come­back to take anoth­er step into the Grand Slam.

Robert Lewandows­ki scored an ear­ly penal­ty for Fer­nan­des to silence Old Traf­ford and give Barcelona the lead at the turn.

But when Antony came in for Wout Wegorst, the effect was immediate.

But when Antony came in to replace Wout Wegort, the effect was remarkable.

Man­ag­er Eric Ten­hag was hailed for his tac­ti­cal vir­tu­os­i­ty, even giv­ing a fist pump to the club’s most suc­cess­ful man­ag­er in his­to­ry, Sir Alex Ferguson.

But after Unit­ed’s vic­to­ry was over and all eyes were on Fri­day’s Europa League round-of-16 draw, fans took to Twit­ter to rub salt on Xav­i’s wounds.

The Barcelona leg­end made head­lines when he for­got Fer­nan­des’ name ahead of his vis­it to Unit­ed, call­ing him ‘Por­tuguese’ instead.

He said of Ten­hag’s influ­ence, “He brings out all the tal­ent in his play­ers. You can see it in Jadon) San­cho, (Mar­cus) Rash­ford, the Por­tuguese and Fred.” .

Anoth­er tweet­ed: “Hel­lo Xavi his name is Bruno Fer­nan­des you can call him grand. He is my cap­tain. Pay trib­ute to his name.

He also wrote, “Believe me, Xavi will nev­er for­get the name of Bruno Fer­nan­des again.”

Anoth­er fan com­ment­ed, “Don’t for­get the name Xavi, it’s Bruno Fernandes.”

Fer­nan­dez has been in great form this sea­son and has tak­en over Har­ry Maguire’s cap­tain­cy as he is reg­u­lar­ly on the bench.

The attack­ing mid­field­er has made 37 appear­ances for Man­ches­ter Unit­ed this sea­son, scor­ing sev­en goals and pro­vid­ing 10 assists.
