Bruno Fernandes reveals why Man Utd goal v Man City stood despite Marcus Rashford being offside

Manchester united star Bruno Fernandes has explained why his equaliser against Manchester City stood despite Marcus Rashford being in an offside position.

In what was a thrilling game at Old Trafford on Saturday afternoon, Jack Grealish looked to have headed City to a crucial victory in their pursuit of Arsenal at the top of the Premier League when he came off the bench to head home on the hour mark. But United responded to claim a hotly-contested equaliser through Fernandes after Rashford was deemed by VAR not to be interfering with play despite racing towards the ball from an offside position.

City reacted furiously and failed to regroup after play restarted, allowing Rashford to poke home a winner from an Alejandro Garnacho cross eight minutes from time.
