What a player McTerminator, Bruno Fernandes captioned his Instagram story with a clapping emoji.
Harry Maguire, the United captain, praised McTominay by sending a photo of the player along with star emojis.
McTominay had never before scored a goal for his country before this past week. He has moved up to position five.
Two of them came against Spain, and they were significant ones. The whole of Europe was definitely taken aback by his performance, and his Manchester United teammates were undoubtedly moved.
The season of McTominay needed this more than anything. He has only played 90 minutes twice this year (2023), and he has only started four club games.
Before the international break, he began with Scotland.
Even though his long-term future at Manchester United appears bleak, he could play a significant role between now and the end of the season.
With Casemiro out, Fernandes may line up alongside McTominay against Newcastle on Sunday, and the Portugal international is clearly eager to praise his teammate and ensure he is confident and ready to go.
