‘Best thing he’s done all season’ – Man Utd fans claim Harry Maguire IGNORED Glazers as he went to lift Carabao Cup


MANCHESTER UNITED fans were left delighted with Harry Maguire at Wembley – despite him only coming on with two minutes to go.

The Red Devils captain was brought on in the final stages of their 2-0 victory over Newcastle in the Carabao Cup Final.

A Casemiro header and a Sven Botman own goal were enough to end the club’s six-year trophy drought.

And Maguire’s cameo allowed him to go on to lift the cup along with Bruno Fernandes.

The club’s owners, the Glazer family, who are trying to sell United, were sitting just inches away from the trophy lift in the royal box.

And they stood to try and congratulate the players as they made their way past after collecting their medals.

However, Maguire marched straight past them – and eagle-eyed supporters were quick to hail him.

One tweeted: “For this he deserved to lift the trophy with Bruno.”

Another said that it was the “best thing he’s done all season” while a fellow fan commented: “This is the greatest thing he has done for our club today!”

While a fellow supporter wrote: “The most captain thing he’s done in a United shirt.”

Maguire has struggled for game time this season but he became the first United skipper to get his hands on silverware since Wayne Rooney lifted the Europa League trophy in 2017.

Some supporters loved the fact he came on for the final few minutes before lifting the trophy.

One said: “Glad Harry Maguire is in the middle holding the trophy for (checks notes) two minutes he played today.”

Another added: “I have to respect how Ten Hag put on Maguire for eight minutes just so he could lift the trophy as the captain. Class act.”
