A viral image of Paul Pogba was taken out of context on the day of the Munich Memorial.
Pogba was wrongly accused of disrespect when an image of him 'dabbing' and 'dancing' outside Old Trafford emerged online, but people clearly didn't know the full story behind his gesture.
It has since been revealed that Pogba and his teammate Juan Mata were greeting a young fan, Alex Nield, outside the stadium.
As you can see in the footage below, it shows both players saying hello while taking a picture with the Manchester United supporter.

Alex Nield wrote on Twitter: "Massive thanks to Juan Mata and Paul Pogba."
After the story emerged online, one Twitter account wrote: "Disgraceful the hatred Paul Pogba receives. Here he is making a young lad's day, but don't let that get in the way of your agenda."
Another person wrote: "The internet is trying to create the idea Pogba was dabbing for photographers after the Munich ceremony yesterday, when in fact, he was making a child's dream come true."
Regardless of who you support, it's impossible not to think Juan Mata is one of the nicest people on the planet.

Back in May 2016, while Manchester United needed a victory to continue putting the pressure on fourth-placed Manchester City as they battle for a Champions League place, Mata produced a moment of class with a young fan.
You could understand if the Spaniard had clapped the fans before heading straight down the tunnel to celebrate with his team-mates at full-time. But not Mata - he went straight for the travelling supporters and even made a young boy's day by talking to him and then taking a picture:
A touch of class from both Pogba and Mata on this occasion.
