Man Utd midfielder Fernandes raps ref and Real Sociedad players

Manchester United midfielder Bruno Fernandes hit out at the ref after last night's Europa League win at Real Sociedad.

The result wasn't enough for United to finish group winners ahead of La Real.

Fernandes slammed Real Sociedad's time-wasting and said referee Georgi Kabakov failed to get a grip with the delaying tactics.

“The frustration was that their team stopped the game so many times, they waste time, the referee gave them the chance to do that when he knew it was enough for them," Fernandes told MUTV.

"The referee should stop that before and they waste too much time for only five added minutes. But it's not because of that we don't win with a two-goal difference. We won the game, we have to keep the positive energy we have."
