Rúben Dias accuses Bruno Fernandes: 'There was an aggression before the Foden one'

Record13 September 2026 at 21:15

Rúben Dias, captain of Manchester City, publicly accused Bruno Fernandes of committing an aggression before the incident that resulted in Phil Foden's red card in the Manchester derby. The Portuguese central defender analyzed the play that led to the red card shown to the English attacker.

According to Dias's accusation, there was a moment prior to the incident with Foden in which Bruno Fernandes allegedly acted aggressively, which the City captain considers should have been punished before the red card shown to the Manchester United player.

The play in question occurred during the derby between Manchester City and Manchester United, a match that was marked by Foden's red card. Dias defended that Bruno Fernandes's aggression should have been considered by the match authorities before any other decision was made.

The captain of the Citizens expressed his outrage at the situation, suggesting that the refereeing failed to identify and punish Bruno Fernandes's alleged aggressive behavior first, before making decisions about the play involving Phil Foden.

Why this matters

This matters to Portuguese readers following the Premier League, particularly those tracking Bruno Fernandes's disciplinary record at Manchester United, as the accusations from a rival captain could influence how the incident is perceived and potentially affect Fernandes's reputation and future matches.
