Has anyone ever said that red cards in football come around like London buses? Bruno Fernandes must certainly think so, even if the Portuguese international currently residing in Manchester isn't all that familiar with the infamy of the big red bus.
Before Manchester United faced Tottenham two Sundays ago, Fernandes had played over 600 times for club and country in a career that has so far reached Novara, Udine, Genoa, Lisbon and Manchester. Never had he received a straight red card.
It's a stat that may have surprised a few given Fernandes' sulky temperament, and even the red card he received for a lunge on James Maddison was rescinded by the FA. However, having been sent off just twice in his career before his dismissal against Spurs, Fernandes received his marching orders for the second time in four days during United's topsy-turvy Europa League clash with Porto.
And this time, there will be no reprieve.
Why was Bruno Fernandes sent off vs Porto?
