Tricky Manchester United winger Antony pulled out a dazzling 360° turn skill, during the Red Devils' 3-0 Europa League win against Sheriff Tiraspol on Thursday night at Old Trafford.

IOL reported:

"That sort of move would've earned him more cheers than jeers on the South African stage however, as he unintentionally paid tribute to one of the finest players to ever grace the Premier Soccer League – the late Emmanuel 'Scara' Ngobese."

Writing for The Mirror, Robbie Savage, who was commentating on the match and having made his feelings known about the moment, said:

"My critics on social media may argue that I could not have performed Antony's trick in my wildest dreams as a player because I would have tripped over my own bootlaces - they are probably right."

"I do wonder if Antony would have attempted his party trick if he had been answerable to the likes of Roy Keane or Gary Neville, let alone Sir Alex Ferguson, in the Old Trafford dressing room."
