Check out this clip of Manchester United midfielder Bruno Fernandes pushing Manchester City’s Fernandinho during their Carabao Cup semi-final clash at Old Trafford.

Fernandinho has a little nibble at Fernandes in the twelfth minute and the Portuguese international didn’t take too kindly to the Brazilian’s close attention and shoved him after compiling to referee Martin Atkinson.

Luckily for Fernandes the referee didn’t see any malice in his actions which may have been seen as raising his hand to an opponent in another referees eyes.

Both sides will be hoping for a victory so they can book themselves a spot in the final where José Mourinho’s Tottenham are waiting following their 2-0 victory over Brentford on Tuesday.

The last Manchester derby was a 0-0 stalemate but thankfully there will be goals in the semi-final as the game must have a winner so extra-time and penalties are a possibility.

The final will take place on Sunday April 25th at Wembley stadium.
