Arsenal icon Ian Wright has criticised Manchester United star Bruno Fernandes for “lashing out” at left-back Nuno Tavares, claiming he was lucky not to get sent off. The Gunners went on to win the game 3-1 over the Red Devils on Saturday.
Goals from Tavares, Bukayo Saka and Granit Xhaka cancelled out Cristiano Ronaldo’s strike to give the home side all three points in the game. It moved them up to fourth after a good week for Mikel Arteta, with a victory over Chelsea and North London rivals Tottenham dropping points in the top-four race.
Discussing his side after the win, the Spaniard said: “what I see is a team that is so willing, that gives the energy. The cohesion that they have in that stadium is phenomenal, and it gives them a chance, and it makes me believe we can do it [finish top four].”
