Bruno Fernandes brushes penalty row aside ahead of Liverpool clash as Manchester United star insists bitter feud between Jurgen Klopp and Ole Gunnar Solskjaer will be last thing on his mind if he gets spot kick at Anfield

Bruno Fernandes insists the penalty row between Manchester United and Liverpool will be the last thing on his mind if he steps up to the spot at Anfield on Sunday.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has accused Jurgen Klopp of trying to influence referees by moaning that United have been awarded nearly as many penalties in two years under the Norwegian as his entire five-and-a-half year spell at Liverpool.

Fernandes says he encountered similar tactics from Benfica and FC Porto when he was a player at Sporting Lisbon, and won't be distracted if United win a penalty against their old rivals in Sunday's clash.
