Man Utd ace Casemiro raps Fernandes for fluffing late chance in Carabao Cup final triumph

Manchester United midfielder Casemiro rapped teammate Bruno Fernandes during Carabao Cup celebrations.

Casemiro opened the scoring with a glancing header in the first-half as United ran out eventual 2-0 winners at Wembley up against Newcastle. Marcus Rashford's deflected strike that went in off Sven Botman wrapped up victory.

Casemiro demonstrated that trophy success doesn't let players off the hook as he gave Bruno Fernandes a full-time telling off.

Fernandes should have made it 3-0 in the game's final moments after setting himself in front of goal but watched his eventual shot palmed away by Newcastle's reserve goalkeeper Loris Karius.

The midfield duo wave their arms and bark at each other as Casemiro remonstrated his unhappiness with Fernandes' decision-making who in fairness could hardly be blamed for trying to score a cup final goal when victory was already all-but secured.

Smiles eventually spread across the face of both players as they prepared to ascend the Wembley stairs up to the trophy platform.

Winger Jadon Sancho also took time out of post-match celebrations to mock Fernandes for his gaping miss as the team celebrated with Man United fans inside Wembley.
