Manchester United captain Harry Maguire hailed two-goal Bruno Fernandes after their victory at Everton.

Maguire praised the mental characteristics of the 26-year-old's game, saying he'd led by example in helping the Reds recover from Wednesday's surprise defeat in Istanbul.

“I haven't seen it [the second goal] back, but Bruno was excellent," he said.

“He came under a little bit of stick on Wednesday night but he's a big character and a big leader. He's reacted brilliantly and does his talking on the pitch.

“I'm delighted he's got a couple of goals or whatever you want to call it, a goal or an assist."
