Sunday's final Premier League game sees Fulham host Manchester United, and it's been all the Red Devils so far. But they've experienced a shocking moment just before half-time.
Despite a handful of attempts in the first half, largely from the creativity and skill of Mathues Cunha, things remained deadlocked.
But then VAR handed Manchester United a chance to score the first in the game and of their season from the spot. Calvin Bassey threw Mason Mount down to the ground, leading to a penalty.
Manager Ruben Amorim had his eyes down to the ground as the captain stepped up, and it was a good thing he did because Fernandes absolutely skied his attempt over the bar.
Most penalties missed in the Premier League since Bruno Fernandes made his debut in the competition:

It goes down at the captain's first penalty miss in the Premier League since Dec. 6, 2023. Some 627 days ago!
Prior to this, he had an 81% (22/27) success rate from the penalty spot.
