FANS were in hysterics after Bruno Fernandes lectured David de Gea on where to dive for Jorginho’s penalty… only for the Chelsea star to go the other way.

But United supporters were left wondering if it could have been three points, had Fernandes left his keeper to his own devices

With the scoreline goalless, Scott McTominay conceded a late penalty after pulling Armando Broja down.

As Blues taker Jorginho stepped up, Fernandes was seen giving his keeper advice.

De Gea went to his left, where the Italian usually slots his cool spot-kicks.

But he, and Fernandes, were left with egg on their faces as the Euro 2020 winner glided his effort the other way.

One fan said on Twitter: “What the hell did Fernandes tell De Gea?”

Another joked: “Bruno Fernandes didn’t have to lie to De Gea on which side to dive.”

And one quipped: “Really wonder what nonsense Fernandes was telling De Gea.”

Fortunately, Casemiro headed in his first goal for the Red Devils, by millimetres, deep into added-time to rescue a point.

Fernandes’ poor advice wasn’t the only comedic twist late on at Stamford Bridge.

Blues midfielder Mateo Kovacic braved the cold in just his boxers after stripping out of his shorts and shirt.

As the Croatia star, 28, ran down the tunnel he passed United legend Peter Schmeichel, who took a second glance.
