Fernandes in tears as Man Utd lose Europa League final shootout

Manchester United midfielder Bruno Fernandes was left in tears after their Europa League final defeat to Villarreal.

The Daily Star says Fernandes broke down in tears after his side's dramatic loss to Villarreal in the Europa League final.

The two sides were level after extra time forced a penalty shootout in Gdansk, Poland.

Villarreal scored every single penalty in an astonishing run of 22 successful efforts that finished with their goalkeeper, Geronimo Rulli, executing a perfect effort.

But up next was United keeper David de Gea, who saw his effort saved by Rulli.

After the agonising defeat, star player Fernandes could be seen in tears and being consoled by his teammates.
