Man United captain Bruno Fernandes blasts team-mates as 'too SOFT' in FA Cup final defeat against rivals Man City... with the midfielder questioning why they were not 'tighter' to Ilkay Gundogan for his winning goal

Bruno Fernandes has accused his Manchester United team-mates of being 'too soft' in their FA Cup final defeat against Manchester City.

United lost the cup showpiece against their bitter rivals 2-1 at Wembley Stadium on Saturday afternoon.

Red Devils captain Fernandes equalised from the spot after Ilkay Gundogan opened the scoring just 13 seconds in, but Gundogan had far too much time and space to score the winner shortly after half-time.

And the Portuguese midfielder, 28, insisted United underperformed on the day and questioned why his fellow stars were not 'tighter' to Gundogan before he scored his second.
