“I know I scored the winning goal but he deserved the Man of the match award more than I do…I have returned the award to him”: Man United’s captain Bruno Fernandes names ONE Man United’s player who deserved the Man of the match award more than him

Diogo Dalot made an “unbelievable” decision as Rangers crashed to a late 2-1 defeat at Manchester United in the Europa League, Steven Thompson says.

The BBC pundit was baffled as the Portuguese defender played the ball out for a corner at the start of the second half at Old Trafford on Thursday (23 January).

Thompson slammed the full-back for putting the Red Devils under pressure after his “strange” moment.

Speaking live on BBC Sportsound (23 January, 21:08), he said: “Strange. Strange bit of play there from Dalot. I mean, it’s so needless. It’s unbelievable. Putting his side under pressure.”

Rangers crash to defeat at Manchester United in Europa League
The Bears went up against a poor Man United side who’ve performed poorly under Ruben Amorim in recent weeks.

Before the game against the Light Blues, the Red Devils had won just one of their last five Premier League matches.

Philippe Clement had the opportunity to make history at Old Trafford, as the Glaswegian outfit have been getting back to their best over the last month.

Despite suffering several injuries on the night, Cyriel Dessers looked to have rescued a great point before Bruno Fernandes scored in added time.

The Light Blues haven’t been at their best away from home in the Scottish Premiership, and the trip to Manchester was always going to be challenging for them.

With Union Saint-Gilloise up next in the competition, qualification to the knockout stages is still in the Bears’ hands, they just need to win.

It was a mammoth effort against a team worth almost billions.
