Bruno Fernandes matches Premier League assist record as Man United beats Forest

Manchester United held off a spirited Nottingham Forest to win 3-2, with Bruno Fernandes equaling the Premier League record for assists in a single season. The Portuguese midfielder now sits alongside Kevin De Bruyne and Thierry Henry at the top of the league's creative charts. It is a remarkable turnaround for Fernandes, who believed United were willing to sell him just a year ago. The win—secured with the help of some confusing officiating—cements United's hold on third place in the league, putting them on track for a return to the Champions League. United's success comes under caretaker manager Michael Carrick, who was little more than an afterthought four months ago when the club had few obvious options following Ruben Amorim's sacking. Now Carrick has revived the club's fortunes and reunited with a squad that looks set for European glory.
