Rasmus Hojlund has taken to Instagram to launch a brutal dig at Kyle Walker following Sunday’s Manchester derby.
The pair became involved in an altercation when Hojlund reacted angrily to a ride from Walker.
Corrupt? Man Utd fans will be livid with Mike Dean’s explanation of Hojlund’s penalty!
Hojlund tackled Walker, who dramatically threw himself to the ground despite very little contact.
Walker will surely be humiliated when he sees the footage after the game. In fact, former Man Utd captain Gary Neville branded the England star “disgraceful”.
“He’s poor from Kyle Walker,” Neville said. “He goes down when he realizes there might be contact. I think he’ll be a little embarrassed when he sees it back.”
Neville’s former team-mate Roy Keane added: “I would have given Walker a red card (for the altercation with Hojlund).
“Walker should be ashamed to go down like that – an experienced player. I don’t know the guy and I’m embarrassed for him.”

As if watching that moment wasn’t bad enough, Walker will also be licking his wounds after Man City surrendered a 1-0 lead in the dying minutes to lose 2-1.
But Walker will feel even worse when he scrolls through Instagram, with Hojlund putting the boot into his soap opera acting.
Posting an image to Instagram of himself celebrating with his Man Utd teammates, Hojlund wrote: “Manchester is red. Violets are blue. What a brilliant performance. But the Oscar goes to…”
After their latest defeat, Man City will now prepare for a challenging trip to Aston Villa on Saturday midday before hosting Everton on Boxing Day.
As for Man Utd, they face Spurs in the EFL Cup on Thursday before hosting Bournemouth in the Premier League.
