Manchester United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer praised Bruno Fernandes over his reaction to Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola during Sunday's win.

The 25-year-old was involved in an exchange with Guardiola in the closing stages when the City coach appeared to try and rile Fernandes by throwing the ball away. Fernandes responded by pressing his index finger against his lips to make a 'shhh' gesture'.

Solskjaer said, "The whole club [has been lifted]. Because he has everything I spoke about.

"He works hard, he is humble enough, he's got the desire and commitment, but he's also got the X-factor. He is a risk-taker, he's got the courage to make mistakes and if you make enough mistakes it'll be corrected into fantastic assists or goals.

"You need a character here, you need character at this club, but this team they have got that. They have learned through some hard times this season, because we have been a young team and we have started something we believe in and Bruno has helped that."
