Manchester United secured third place in the Premier League with a 3-2 victory over Nottingham Forest at Old Trafford, with Bruno Fernandes making history.
This was a highly engaging match filled with dynamic moments, as the teams took turns dominating play. In the end, the home team secured the three points, despite Nottingham Forest's valiant efforts.
The home side took the lead through Luka Šoć in the 5th minute, which held at halftime. However, Nottingham Forest woke up in the second half and equalized through Morata in the 53rd minute.
Just two minutes later, Manchester United struck again. This time, Mateuš Kuna played a perfect ball for Brajan Embeumo to score in the 76th minute, assisted by Bruno Fernandes. With this assist, Fernandes equaled Ander Herrera and Kevin De Bruyne for the most key passes in a single Premier League season with 20.
The drama continued as Gibbs-White reduced the deficit to 3-2 just a minute later, but Nottingham Forest lacked the energy to draw level. Manchester United had several chances to extend the lead to 4-2 but were unsuccessful.
Manchester United now has 68 points in third place, while Nottingham Forest is secured in 16th place with 43 points.
