Manchester United legend, Wayne Rooney, highlighted the contributions of Bruno Fernandes and Casemiro after their hard-fought 1-0 victory against Nottingham Forest in the FA Cup.
Casemiro’s late header from a Fernandes’ free-kick secured the win and set up a mouthwatering quarter-final clash against Liverpool.
“It wasn’t the most beautiful game, but it’s a huge win for United,” Rooney said on BBC. “When it mattered most, two experienced players stepped up.
That’s exactly what you need in these cup games.”
United now turn their focus to the Premier League, where they face rivals Manchester City this Sunday.
