Bruno Miguel Borges Fernandes (born 8 September 1994) is a Portuguese footballer who plays for Primeira Liga club Sporting CP and the Portugal national team as a midfielder. Fernandes started his career at Serie B side Novara Calcio and soon featured for Udinese and Sampdoria in Serie A.
In 2017, he signed with Sporting CP where he established himself as one of the best players in the Primeira Liga. He was named the LPFP Primeira Liga Player of the Year in both 2017–18 and 2018–19. In the latter season, he also helped Sporting win the Taça de Portugal. A senior international since 2017, Fernandes represented Portugal at the 2016 Summer Olympics and 2018 FIFA World Cup.
Marco Silva said his Fulham players panicked towards the end of the game, allowing Bruno Fernandes to find a stoppage-time winner in Manchester United’s 1-0 win at Craven Cottage.
The manager said the hosts dictated the play in the second half and created “better chances” but lapses in concentration from certain players allowed United to grab the win.
Joao Palhinha’s poor clearance initially fell to Fernandes, who moved away from Sasa Lukic before firing home via the palm of goalkeeper Bernd Leno. “It’s frustrating really,” Silva told TNT Sports. “We’re disappointed with what happened in the last few minutes of the game, but we had a very good second half.

We had the better chances and should’ve created even more. “I’ve already told the players that they need to keep their emotions in check on the pitch, all the way until the last minute of the game, but we let ourselves get panicked. "It wasn’t a collective issue, it was one, two, three players within a 10-second span which is unfortunate but difficult to understand.” Erik ten Hag hailed match-winner Fernandes as an “example” to the rest of the squad.
