Bruno Fernandes had an evening to savor as he assisted his national team, Portugal massacre Croatia 4-1 before speeding off to the hospital to be at his wife’s, Ana, side as she gave birth to a baby boy
Manchester United star Bruno Fernandes says he scored one of the “most important goals” of his life after his wife gave birth to a baby.
The attacking-midfielder played all 90 minutes to help Portugal pummel Croatia 4-1, before making his way to the hospital where his wife was to also assist her in putting to bed.

Ana delivered a baby boy at around 12:30am on Sunday morning, just four hours after Portugal’s win at the Estadio do Dragao.
It wasn’t plain sailing for the United ace either on his journey to the hospital, as Fernandes he revealed an anti-doping test delayed his exit from the stadium.
“Today, 38 weeks and 6 days ago, I scored one of the most important goals of my life and had to wait a distance of almost 9 months, anxious to see the ball hit the back of the net.
“When the game was over many of you said “you didn’t score a goal”, but you were wrong because despite the final whistle, one of the two best shots I ever took in my career was about to go in, but not without the delegate calling me for anti-doping right after the game.
“After those moments plus a few hours, behold! the ball went in – or in this specific case Goncalo de Pinho Fernandes decided it was time for his father to score the second important goal in his life!
“And so at 00:39 on the 6th of September my wife @anaapinho_ once again made our life gain even more life.”
