There was a lot of talk on Sky Sports about the distance referee Anthony Taylor measured out between the ball and the defenders – apparently 11.2 yards, rather than the standard 10 – but no-one can deny that this was a free-kick straight out of the top drawer.
It was the third our no.8 has registered for the club this season, with Leicester and Everton also on the end of his supreme dead-ball ability.
The free-kick at Goodison Park was our winner in this category for February, meaning it’s another clean sweep of awards for Fernandes – well done, Bruno!
