EPL: Bruno Fernandes matches assist record in Man Utd win over Nottingham Forest

Manchester United captain, Bruno Fernandes, has equalled the Premier League record of 20 assists in a season.

Fernandes is now level with Kevin De Bruyne and Thierry Henry.

He hit the milestone, after laying across a pass that Bryan Mbeumo scored United’s third.

The win ensured that the Red Devils secured third place with a 3-2 win over Nottingham Forest.

Luke Shaw opened the scoring at Old Trafford, before Morato equalized with a simple header after the break.

Almost immediately, Matheus Cunha put United in front again, before Mbeumo’s goal.

Morgan Gibbs-White pulled one back for Forest, who have already secured safety in the topflight.
