Man Utd star Bruno Fernandes insists 'normal' argument with Lindelof

Manchester United star Bruno Fernandes insists he didn't have to explain his sidelined argument with Victor Lindelof in the Europa League semi-final loss to Sevilla on Sunday.

Lindelof was guilty for Sevilla's second and winning goal of the game when he failed to clear Jesus Navas' cross with twelve minutes remaining.

Fernandes was seen arguing with Lindelof after the mistake, but insists it was a completely normal sight.

On his argument with Victor Lindelof after the second Sevilla goal: "It's normal when you concede. It's not about me or Victor.

"What happened between me and Victor is normal. It will happen many more times in football. We need to see the mistakes everybody did and improve."

Asked about the result, Fernandes added: "More than a positive start. We played a great game and created a lot of chances. But in football it's not enough - we missed a lot in front of goal.

"We are not satisfied about this because we wanted to go through. Now it's time to rest and refresh the legs. Their keeper did very well, but the quality we have we should have scored."
