Preston North End supporters waxed lyrical about Manchester United loanee Alvaro Fernandez after he grabbed two assists on his first start for the club to help them beat Huddersfield Town 4-1 in the Carabao Cup on Tuesday night.
After stepping off the bench in each of Preston's opening two league matches, Fernandez was awarded his first senior start in English football by manager Ryan Lowe, tasking him with starting in the left wing-back berth. He excelled in the role, providing two assists to help the Lancashire outfit record their first win of the season.
A constant threat down the left side, Fernandez, who joined Preston on a season-long loan deal last month, set up Alistair McCann for each of his two goals in the space of just ten first-half minutes.
