BRUNO FERNANDES was involved in a bust-up with former Everton star Derek Mountfield at half-time on Saturday, according to reports.
The Manchester United captain sparked his side’s comeback as he fired a free-kick past Jordan Pickford.

Mountfield reportedly mimed elbowing Man Utd stars as they left the tunnelGetty
That came after his fallout with Mountfield over what appeared to be a bit of playful banter.
According to The Telegraph Mountfield jokingly mimed elbowing the United stars as they left the tunnel to re-enter the pitch after half-time.
But Fernandes took exception and exchanged some fiery words with the former defender, who was at Goodison being announced as an ‘Everton Giant’.
Fernandes’ half-time frustration was understandable as his team trailed 2-0 following a dreadful first-half performance.
Shambolic defending led to Beto‘s opener and the Red Devils were carved open again in the build-up to Abdoulaye Doucoure’s goal.
They offered nothing in attack and appeared to be drifting towards yet another defeat when Fernandes fired in from 25 yards.
Rio Ferdinand slammed United’s display, saying: “I’m sitting here and I don’t know if I have seen a United team this bad. It has been embarrassing in all different facets of the game.
“Yes, we can talk about quality, you talk about talent, but one thing which is unforgivable is a lack of desire.
“There’s instances in this game where Man Utd need to look at this Everton team and take examples from it. It’s embarrassing to sit here and watch it.
“We said they were going to have to come out and roll their sleeves up, because Everton would come out fighting.
“Man Utd haven’t done that. They’ve been pressed, they’ve been harried. They haven’t been able to deal with the press at all.
“They have chance after chance to clear the ball. Zero conviction, no-one taking over the situation.
“You’ve got to fight. You don’t come to Everton at this place, whatever form they’re in, and think you can roll them over easily. Man Utd have not understood that assignment from the first whistle.
“I hope [Amorim] went absolutely ballistic at the players. They were out-run, out-fought, out-jumped, every single department of the game. They were second best.”

“The baby was expected to be small but healthy which is exactly what we got.
“No complications and I couldn’t believe how quick the actual section itself was.
“The feeling when they are out and you see them for the first time and everything is okay is indescribable.
“A magical feeling.
“And now healing process is already well underway after only 11 days and Teddy is feeding every 2-3 hours and growing like a weed.”
