A clip of Andy Robertson and Bruno Fernandes 'faking an injury' shows the difference in the Sky Sports commentary.

Liverpool annihilated Man United at Anfield on Sunday as they scored SEVEN goals past them in a destructive performance.

Gary Neville and Roy Keane slammed Fernandes for his showing, with the Man United legend also ripping into him whilst on commentary.

He took aim at the Man United captain for his reaction to Ibrahima Konate's supposed elbow. The Liverpool defender landed an arm on the chest of Fernandes, who went down to the ground in dramatic fashion, holding his face.

Neville called out Fernandes on commentary, saying it was 'embarrassing'.

But Robertson doing the same and 'faking an injury' didn't receive the same criticism. Very little was said as Antony was shown a yellow card.

A video of the two moments has been compiled into one clip, accompanied with the caption: "Sky Sports commentary when Robertson faked a face injury VS when Fernandes did the same.."


Neville continued to slam Fernandes following the match. He said: "The second half has been a disgrace, a shambles, epitomised by Fernandes who has been embarrassing at times.

"It’s not their usual performance, spirit or form. [Erik ten Hag] will deal with it."

Roy Keane echoed Neville's sentiment and bemoaned the lack of leadership among the other senior players.

"I start with the captain. You don’t throw your hands up, you run back," he added. "I’ve had enough of him throwing his arms up as team-mates and not running back. He got pushed in the chest and goes down holding his face. I think Ten Hag will deal with him very strongly in the next 48 hours. It was a disgrace."

Fernandes himself faced the music after the result as he lamented his side's second-half performance, which saw them concede six goals.

"It’s really frustrating and sad because it’s a really bad result," he said. "The first half was really good, we had chances and controlled most but the second half was not at our level.

"We gave too much time and space and counters to them and it was not our level. We know how much quality we have so it’s about the next game and get a result back."
