MANCHESTER, England (AP) 鈥� Bruno Fernandes has tied the record for most assists in a single Premier League campaign.
By setting up Bryan Mbeumo for United’s third goal in its 3-2 win over Nottingham Forest on Sunday, Fernandes moved onto 20 assists 鈥� equal with the record held jointly by Thierry Henry (2002-03) and Kevin De Bruyne (2019-20).
United has one game left in the league this season, at Brighton next weekend.
鈥淓veryone knew it was important that I could get another assist at least,鈥� Fernandes said after the game, “and they have been trying everything they can to score from my passes.
鈥淭here were probably moments today I should have passed instead of shot.鈥�
Fernandes was last week in England by soccer writers.
