Manchester United are winning 1-0 against Arsenal at half-time in their Premier League clash at Old Trafford after a stunning Bruno Fernandes free-kick.
Ruben Amorim was forced to put out a weakened Manchester United side to face Arsenal on Sunday afternoon and fans were nervous ahead of the game.
United have been very solid so far, however, giving minimal chances to Arsenal in their defensive shape.
Amorim’s men have looked somewhat dangerous on the break but it was a moment of magic from a Bruno Fernandes free-kick which gave them the lead just before half-time.
