Manchester United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has revealed a bit of kidology inspired Bruno Fernandes for his matchwinning moment against Liverpool.

United defeated their great rivals 3-2 in the fourth round of the FA Cup on Sunday with Fernandes grabbing the winner from a superb free-kick.

However, Solskjaer revealed he had told Fernandes before the game that he wouldn't be playing on Sunday - which left the midfielder taking his frustrations out on the training pitch.
