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.

The veteran commentator, formerly of Sky Sports, inexplicably called Fernandes' pass to Mainoo a 'miss-kick'.

The 78-year-old's commentary for Man United's second goal angered fans online.

One X user wrote: "Martin Tyler should retire immediately!"

A second slammed: "Think Martin Tyler needs to visit Specsavers or give up the mic embarrassing."

A third added: "One of the most beautiful passes you will ever see and Martin Tyler describes it as a miss-kick."

A fourth said: "He really needs to retire. His commentary is devoid of any emotion and now he can’t even see the game properly."

Another commented: "Tyler has had an absolute shocker there!! Time for retirement I think."

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.

"I’ve been critical of Bruno over the years and I’m happy to be proven wrong. His leadership was outstanding. We’ve always mentioned how brilliant he is as a player."
