It was another difficult night out for Manchester United on Saturday, but a spectacular Bruno Fernandes volley proved the difference between the sides at Turf Moor as the visitors beat Burnley 1-0.<\/p>\n

The Red Devils came into the game off three straight defeats and they were certainly not brimming with confidence despite being clear favourites against the newly-promoted side.<\/p>\n
They were also hampered by a long list of injuries, which saw Jonny Evans start his first game for the club since 2015, partnering Victor Lindelof in central defence.<\/p>\n
Remarkably, Evans was heavily involved in United\u2019s offence, seeing a goal ruled out as Rasmus Hojlund was offside, before providing a brilliant assist for a goal which was not chalked off.<\/p>\n
The Northern Irish veteran was allowed time on the ball just inside Burnley\u2019s half and he picked out a long, raking pass on his left foot to Fernandes inside the right hand side of the penalty box.<\/p>\n
The Portuguese midfielder watched it all the way and beautifully timed his volley back across goalkeeper James Trafford and into the far corner.<\/p>\n
That glorious effort came just before half-time and, while there were opportunities to come at both ends, there was little chance that anything would match it, and it didn\u2019t.<\/p>\n
