Christian Eriksen reveals what he saw before Bruno Fernandes' free-kick as he speaks out on distance of Arsenal's wall

Christian Eriksen says he spotted something early before Bruno Fernandes' stunning free-kick for Manchester United against Arsenal.

Man United and Arsenal played out a 1-1 draw at Old Trafford on Sunday.

The hosts opened the scoring when Fernandes converted a free-kick just before the break.

The distance of Arsenal's wall prompted Gary Neville to make a huge claim on commentary.

At the break, Sky Sports confirmed the wall was back more than 10 yards, measuring it at 11.2 yards away.

After the game, Eriksen spoke to Sky Sports and revealed what he noticed moments before Fernandes stepped up and converted.

He spotted that Arsenal's wall was back further than usual and claimed there was a gap of '15 meters' between the wall and Fernandes, who swept home to make it 1-0.

Asked about Fernandes' free-kick, he replied: "Very good. Happy that the wall was about 15 meters away, so it was perfect for him to put it over."

Eriksen added: "I saw it early. Even before the kick. I saw how far they were back."

Declan Rice, who scored Arsenal's equaliser in the 74th minute, also shared his views on the wall and Fernandes' free-kick.

"It did feel far back, but Anthony [Taylor] is the ref and he makes that decision," he said.

Referencing Arsenal's free-kick in the second-half, Ruben Amorim added: "I think it was clear, both free kicks. So, when it's your free kick, you don't say nothing. When it's the opponent, you try to push because it's a big difference... It was fair, one for us and one for them."
