Manchester United fans are fuming at Martin Tyler's 'embarrassing' commentary for Bruno Fernandes' stunning assist for Kobbie Mainoo in their FA Cup triumph over Manchester City.
Man United beat Man City 2-1 at Wembley Stadium to win the FA Cup.
Alejandro Garnacho opened the scoring before Mainoo doubled his side's lead, with Fernandes playing a huge role in the goal.
The Portuguese played a sublime pass to Mainoo, who made no mistake in front of goal.
But Tyler, who was on commentary duty for the world feed, saw it differently to the dismay of Man United fans on social media.

Commentators for BBC Radio 5 Live, BBC and ITV hailed Fernandes' pass and didn't mention a 'miss-kick'.
Since returning from a rare injury towards the end of the season, Fernandes has starred in a Red Devils shirt, culminating in his incredible showing against Man City in the FA Cup final.
Speaking after the game, Roy Keane praised the star midfielder's showing.
"Absolutely amazing. It was a proper Manchester United performance. They were dogged, they stuck in, and they played some good stuff going forward too," he said.
