Manchester United fans have slammed Rasmus Hojlund following his social media post after their draw with Porto.
Man United threw away a two-goal lead as they were held to a 3-3 draw with Porto in their Europa League clash on Thursday.
Marcus Rashford, who was taken off at the break, broke the deadlock before Hojlund added a second as he opened his account for the season.
However, Porto hit back with three goals as Harry Maguire headed home in injury time to grab his side a point.
After the result, Hojlund took to social media to reflect on his goal despite his team's draw.

On Instagram, he uploaded a series of images of himself celebrating his strike, accompanied with the caption: "Luckily I had 6 weeks to practice my celebration. A win would’ve made it perfect."
But Hojlund's post didn't sit well among Man United fans online as they criticised their own player.
One X user wrote: "Rasmus Hojlund talking about his celebration is a prime example of how self centred these players are at Manchester United."

A second tweeted: "Their manager doesn’t care about the club. It’s rubbing off on them . It’s a job to them and they’re getting paid."
A third added: "Really wrong time to post that," to which another replied: "And rightfully so. He needs to read the room."
A fifth commented: "These guys don't know what it means to play for this badge. I am not surprised though....this is the same way he was celebrating his final pk shootout against Coventry in the last FA semifinal."
A sixth exclaimed: "That's the mentality of the players. It appears they are satisfied with bare minimum. Celebrating a draw against Porto is embarrassing."

The Dane marked his first start of the campaign with a goal, having been blighted with injuries.
He could keep in his place in the starting XI when Man United resume their Premier League campaign against Aston Villa on Sunday.
