You may have missed what Lisandro Martinez did after Alejandro Garnacho fired Manchester United into the lead in Saturday's FA Cup final win.

United beat rivals City at Wembley to win the FA Cup for the 13th time, denying Pep Guardiola's side a domestic double and qualifying for the Europa League next season.

Erik ten Hag got his game-plan spot on, particularly in the first half when Garnacho and Mainoo found the net on counters.

Garnacho put United ahead in the 30th minute, capitalising on a mix-up between Josko Gvardiol and Stefan Ortega.

He sent one half of Wembley into raptures and was mobbed by his teammates.

Compatriot Martinez was one of them and embraced the winger after his heroics.

However, the former Ajax man took issue with what Garnacho did next. He proceeded to kiss the United badge on his shirt.

Martinez didn't like the goading from Garnacho and immediately pulled him away, before pushing the 19-year-old back into position for kick-off.

He then put his hand out to apologise to the City supporters in that section of the stadium.

Many didn't notice the actions of Martinez at the time but he received huge plaudits for the leadership qualities displayed.

One wrote: "Lisandro is a monster. He didn’t let the kid kiss the badge because jobs not finished."

Another said: This is the leadership Roy Keane was talking about and we definitely need more characters like him."

A third posted: "This is Licha. This is our leader."

A fourth user commented: "Leadership and guidance. Need more of that next season."

A final person tweeted: "Licha for vice captain."
