Bruno Fernandes equalled the PL record for the most assists in a season after registering his 20th of the campaign in his team`s 3-2 win over Forest [{ "selector": ".imaoe-a", "duration": "1000ms", "fill": "forwards", "keyframes": [ {"offset": 0, "transform": "translateX(-309px)", "opacity": "1"}, {"offset": 1, "transform": "translateX(0)", "opacity": "1"} ] }]

The record-equalling moment came in the 76th minute when his cross was turned in by Bryan Mbeumo at Old Trafford [{ "selector": ".imaoe-a", "duration": "1000ms", "fill": "forwards", "keyframes": [ {"offset": 0, "transform": "translateX(-309px)", "opacity": "1"}, {"offset": 1, "transform": "translateX(0)", "opacity": "1"} ] }]

It looked it Fernandes might break the record as United attacked, but woodwork and last-ditch defending from Forest prevented him from getting the 21st assist [{ "selector": ".imaoe-a", "duration": "1000ms", "fill": "forwards", "keyframes": [ {"offset": 0, "transform": "translateX(-309px)", "opacity": "1"}, {"offset": 1, "transform": "translateX(0)", "opacity": "1"} ] }]
