Carabao Cup: Young Man United Fan Had Winners' Medal Ahead of Match

• Manchester United beat Newcastle United 2-0 at Wembley Stadium to win the Carabao Cup
• The Red Devils won a first trophy since the 2017 UEFA Europa League under Jose Mourinho
• A young fan predicted the victory with his outfit and a scientific gimmick ahead of the game

Erik ten Hag needed no time and excuses to end Manchester United's trophy drought in his first season at the club.

He guided the team to beat Newcastle United 2-0 in the final at Wembley Stadium on Sunday.

First-half goals from summer signing, Casemiro and in-form star, Marcus Rashford were enough to secure the first trophy of the ten Hag era and the club's first since the 2017 UEFA Europa League under Jose Mourinho.

The Dutch manager has Man United playing good football and they are now a team to be reckoned with. They are still in the running for three more trophies after their Carabao Cup triumph.

Young United fan predicts win

It was a day to revel in for Man United fans, as they trooped into the capital in their numbers to claim one of 33,000 allotted tickets of the 90,000 capacity of the Wembley Stadium, as reported by National World.

A young fan was seen hanging the winner's medal around his neck as fans were making their way into the stadium ahead of the match, as spotted by Football Daily.

''I am a time traveller. I can go into the future. Everyone's going to have [medals] later except the Newcastle players,'' he said.

The young boy's confidence delighted the fans before the game, while some rival fans hoped he was wrong. His prediction turned out to be spot-on.
