Man Utd captain Fernandes: That was Fergie time - and it had to be an academy player to do it!

Manchester United captain Bruno Fernandes heaped praise on teammate Scott McTominay.

The Scotland international came off the bench to transform his side's Premier League game against Brentford.

United were 1-0 down at home in the 90th minute, before McTominay scored twice in added time to seal a 2-1 win.

“It's Fergie time," Bruno told MUTV after the match.

“At United it's normal to score at this time of the game and part of Fergie time [means] it has to be an Academy graduate scoring too.

“Scott gave us the win today and we are really happy for him.

“Part of the two goals was the desire and togetherness we had during the whole game, and the effort everyone that came on in the game to help the team [had] was really good."
