  • Davido has reacted to Manchester United’s Champions League loss to Danish side, FC Copenhagen
  • The Red Devils had taken a two-goal lead, only to lose the encounter 4-3 in embarrassing fashion
  • Davido aimed a jibe at the club’s supporters over the Red Devils performances in recent matches

Nigerian music star, Davido has trolled Manchester United fans after the club’s poor performance against FC Copenhagen in the UEFA Champions League on Wednesday night, November 8.

The Red Devils blew away a two-goal lead and eventually lost 4-3 to the hard-fighting Danish club.

United striker, Rasmus Hojlund had opened the scoring in the 3rd minute and doubled the English team's lead in the 28th to help his side settle in the game.

However, there was drama in the 42nd minute when Marcus Rashford was shown straight red following a dangerous tackle, allowing the home side to immediately capitalise.

Mohamed Elyounoussi pulled one back for the hosts on the stroke of half-time, with Diogo Goncalves then making it 2-2 in stoppage time of the first stanza.

Bruno Fernandes restored United's lead from the penalty spot in the 69th minute, but Lukas Lerager drew his side level once again in the 83rd minute.

Roony Bardghji made it 4-3 to Copenhagen four minutes later to ensure United returned home without a single point.

The result leaves Erik ten Hag’s side bottom of their group with just three points from four matches, Evening Standard reports.

Via his handle on X (formerly Twitter), he noted how United fans practically complained week-in, week-out:

"I don’t watch ball like that … but come Wetin Man U do so?? Every week una dey complain enlighten me pls."

Sports Brief also reported on United fans claiming to be targeted by the 'system' after their side dramatically lost to FC Copenhagen.

The chaotic Champions League match saw seven goals as the Red Devils blew a two-goal lead in a horrific second-half collapse.

One fan has now claimed that United are clearly 'fighting against the system' in relation to decisions which went against them.
