Antony posts 'celebration comp' of himself watching Man United vs. Leeds, fans brutally react

Rival fans have savagely taken a swipe at Antony for sharing a 'celebration comp' on social media following Manchester United's comeback against Leeds United.

Antony was ruled out of Man United's Premier League showdown against Leeds on Wednesday, but watched on from the stands at Old Trafford.

And he's shared footage of himself watching the league game, capturing his celebrations as Marcus Rashford and Jadon Sancho scored in the space of eight minutes to rescue a point against Leeds.

The clip shows the Brazilian cutting an animated and passionate figure when his team scored as he cheered his side on against Leeds.

He uploaded the video on social media, accompanied with the caption: "A day as a fan! Congratulations to you for the dedication in the match ! We’re United."

However, rival fans have ruthlessly poked fun at Antony for posting a 'celebration comp' online.

One Twitter user wrote: "Bro made a comp of him watching the game."

A second tweeted: "100m player to make a celebration comp and being a cheerleader instead of becoming useful on the pitch."

A third added: "Did he.. did he just create a celebration comp?"

A fourth said: "Celebrating comp for a 2-2 draw! This is so Low. Like a Manchester United player celebrating a draw against Leeds United with so much passion."

Another commented: "Doing a celebration comp is insaaaane."

Man United supporters, though, loved the energy shown by Antony from the stands.

One claimed: "I want teammates like this!!"

A second said: "How can you hate Antony. This is exactly what we need."

A third added: "I actually rate this, spreads the right mentality throughout the squad, some players when they don't start every game seem bothered by the game going on the pitch because they selfishly only care about themselves playing, this is class from Antony."
