Embarrassing Bruno Fernandes slammed for ‘dive’ after Man Utd ace claimed he was hit in face by Konate in Liverpool loss
BRUNO FERNANDES has been slammed for an embarrassing dive against Liverpool.
The Manchester United captain fell to the ground clutching his face after feeling contact from Ibrahima Konate.
The Liverpool defender was in control of the ball at the time and had his arm outstretched as he was running, and he appeared to hit Fernandes in the chest.
Fernandes went down as if he was injured despite the minimal contact and it was no surprise when he got back up to his feet moments later.
Fans blasted the Portuguese and labelled his behaviour as “embarrassing”.
One said: “Bruno Fernandes is the biggest crybaby in the Premier League. How can you dive and then get mad at the referee for not giving a pen?”
Another added: “Bruno Fernandes is a clown. The dive there deserved an Oscar.”
A third said: “Bruno Fernandes is the most embarrassing player in the league. Clear and obvious dive Gets a hand on his chest and goes down clutching his face.”
Another commented: “What an embarrassing dive by Bruno Fernandes. Absolutely one of the biggest cheats in the Premier League.”
Gary Neville also criticised Fernandes post-match, taking aim at his dive and his constant moaning at team-mates.

The Sky Sports pundit said: “Some of his behaviour in the second half has been a disgrace.
“Bruno Fernandes has been embarrassing at times.
“I’ve had enough of him throwing his arms around at his team-mates. I’ve had enough of him not running back.
“He whinges at everybody. He got pushed in the chest and he goes down and holds his face.
“He’s got to put in a Manchester United captain’s performance out there, that wasn’t a captain’s performance.”
