Manchester United captain Bruno Fernandes has revealed the inspirational team talk that led them to the FA Cup final.
Fernandes, the club captain this season, was part of the squad that was 3-0 up against Coventry City, only for it to become 3-3 before winning out on penalties.
Although Fernandes was frustrated by the game, he did commend Darren Fletcher for speaking to the players pre-game.

When asked manager Erik ten Hag told them, Fernandes said: “To believe, to believe we can get into the final. It’s about pride, about getting to an FA Cup final, you don’t get here often, not all the teams get here often.
“We had Fletch speaking before the game. Fletch has been part of one of the best teams for Man United in the past years and he’s been here three times at Wembley for the FA Cup, he played 12 years for the club, and he was in the most successful part of the club in the last years.
“It shows you how big it is to be in the FA Cup, how difficult it is and now obviously we have to be frustrated at the way the game ended up but at the same time proud again to be in the FA Cup final and hopefully we are going to do it differently to last season.”
