Ex-Man City defender Onuoha: Fernandinho outrageous against PSG

Former Manchester City defender Nedum Onuoha says Fernadinho deserves credit for victory over PSG.

City are now in the Champions League final for the first time.

Onuoha said, "You have to give special mention to Fernandinho. It's his 36th birthday today and the way he played in that game he was outrageous. Di Maria doesn't get sent off if it's anyone else tackling in that moment.

"He knows how to prod and prod and he leaves the game without having a yellow card. That's the kind of player that everyone wants to play with but he doesn't get enough credit from the outside."
