Bruno Fernandes credited Chelsea flop Ricardo Quaresma for his sublime pass in the lead-up to Manchester United's second goal against Nottingham Forest.
The 28-year-old midfielder helped the Red Devils secure safe passage through to the League Cup final with an emphatic 5-0 aggregate victory, expertly setting up the in-form Marcus Rashford, who allowed Fred to make it 2-0 on the night. Man of the match Fernandes got all the glory for the goal, as his wonderful outside-of-the-boot pass picked out Rashford and got fans off their seats.
Post-match, the United star was asked about the pass - known as a 'trivela' - and he unselfishly revealed that Portuguese compatriot Quaresma, who played just five times on loan at Chelsea in 2009, was his inspiration. "I learned from Quaresma," Fernandes told Sky Sports, having played alongside the former Barcelona and Inter Milan trickster on international duty.
