Manchester United ace Bruno Fernandes has revealed the inspirational team talk that saw them reach the FA Cup final.
Fernandes, who is club captain this season, was part of the team that were 3-0 up against Coventry City, only to let it become 3-3 before winning out on penalties.
While Fernandes was frustrated by aspects of the game, he did praise Darren Fletcher for speaking to the players pre-game.
Asked what they were told by manager Erik ten Hag, Fernandes said: “To believe, to believe we can get into the final. It's about pride, it's about getting to an FA Cup final, you don't get here often, not all the teams get here often.
“We had Fletch speaking before the game. Fletch has been part of one of the best teams for Man United in the past years and he's been here three times at Wembley for the FA Cup, he played 12 years for the club, he was in the most successful part of the club in the last years.
“It shows you how big it is to be in the FA Cup, how difficult it is and now obviously we have to be frustrated at the way the game ended up but at the same time proud again to be in the FA Cup final and hopefully we are going to do it differently to last season."
