Manchester United icon Peter Schmeichel brutally slammed Bruno Fernandes for giving away a "stupid" penalty during Thursday night's victory over Barcelona in the Europa League play-offs.
With the match level at 2-2 on aggregate, Fernandes was at fault for giving away a first-half penalty which was coolly converted by Robert Lewandowski to leave United with a mountain to climb.
Thankfully for the hosts, they recovered and fought back after the break with goals from Fred and Antony to progress at the expense of the Spanish giants, who were also dumped out of the Champions League earlier this season. But prior to United's second-half turnaround, former Old Trafford favourite Schmeichel was furious with Fernandes after he hauled down Alejandro Balde in the penalty area.
