In a post-match interview following Manchester United’s thrilling FA Cup quarter-final victory over Liverpool, Bruno Fernandes made a passionate plea for a rule change regarding yellow cards for removing shirts during goal celebrations. The call for change comes in the wake of Amad Diallo’s dramatic late winner, which saw the young winger receive a second yellow card for removing his shirt in jubilation.
Fernandes, while praising Diallo for his decisive goal, expressed his belief that players should be allowed to express their emotions freely after scoring, without the fear of being penalized. “This moment has to be enjoyed,” Fernandes emphasized, “and I think it’s one of the rules football has to change because you should be able to celebrate the goal, obviously with respect to other clubs, to enjoy your moment.”
