United were awarded a penalty after Antony was caught by a late challenge by Enzo Fernandez.
Referee Chris Kavanagh missed the tackle at first, but after a VAR intervention, the spot-kick was awarded.
Fernandes, 29, stood up to take the penalty but Robert Sanchez saved his tame effort.
And fans have been left seething on social media.
One fan fumed: “Nah Bruno Fernandes needs to start packing his bag.
“He’s washed too. From the coach down to the players, everyone is useless.”
A second posted: “Pathetic penalty by Bruno, lol.
“Just set it down and put your boot through it, not this fricking look away hop step penalty.”

A third wrote: “Bruno needs to leave this club.”
A fourth commented: “Bruno leave my team, bring me Odegaard.”
Marcus Rashford was dropped from the starting line up by manager Erik ten Hag after a drop in his form.
Both sides needed to pick up a win in order to boost their hopes of challenging for a Champions League spot.
