Speaking to Sky Sports after the match, Fernandes said:
“I let my teammates down with the red card. I appreciate everything they did on the pitch; it was tough for them.
“We didn’t start the game well. Even when it was 11 vs 11, the result was already in their favor, and then the red card made it worse.
“The team did very well, they tried hard. We conceded two more goals, but it was difficult to cover all the spaces.
“There’s a lot of good to take from this. The team showed resilience, and I’m proud of them.”
