Bruno Fernandes was furious after Manchester United's 2-0 loss to Spurs on Sunday. The Red Devils had a number of good chances in the first half, but ultimately were unable to find the back of the net.
Fernandes is especially aggrieved with the officials for not awarding his side a penalty in the first half. Alejandro Garnacho's shot struck Cristian Romero's arm in the box, but referee Michael Oliver and VAR decided against giving a spot-kick.
The United midfielder is demanding an apology from referees boss John Moss, similar to the one he gave to Wolves manager Gary O'Neil after his side were denied a penalty at Old Trafford last week.
"It's a clear penalty. No excuses for not seeing, no excuses for the VAR to not see that," Fernandes told Stadium Astro. "Last week they made a big thing for United not having a penalty against us. I want to see what's going to happen this week. If it's going to happen...the same show that they did last week."
"I want to see if John Moss also comes to apologise in our dressing room, like they said they did for the manager of Wolves. I hope he's here and he can come."
It is clear Fernandes is still seething over the incident, and is determined to get the same treatment Wolves got last week. He was even booked by Michael Oliver at the end of the match, but it is unlikely to stem his desire for justice.
