Riyad Mahrez ruthlessly hits out at fan who criticised his attitude at FA Cup final

Riyad Mahrez denied claims he looked unhappy at the FA Cup final.

Riyad Mahrez has hit out at a fan who questioned his attitude at the FA Cup final as Manchester City beat Manchester United.

Mahrez was an unused substitute on Sunday as Man City beat their cross-town rivals 2-1 at Wembley Stadium to clinch their second piece of silverware this season.

Ilkay Gundogan scored a brace, with the Blues looking to capture a famous treble when they face Inter Milan in the Champions League final on Saturday.

Other than Stefan Ortega, Pep Guardiola appears set to field the same team in Istanbul, which means Mahrez will likely take a place on the bench.

The winger's attitude was questioned by a fan during the team's celebrations as he seemed to look unhappy in a video emerging online.

But the 32-year-old, who has played 47 games in all competitions this season, has denied claims he was unhappy, lashing out on Twitter.

He tweeted: "Another good example of why paying for being verified doesn’t give your bs any credit. Me taking the time to answer your tweet should tell you more about the situation than me not running on a video lol.. next time just sit back and enjoy."

The Algerian international, who has scored three goals in his side's Champions League campaign, could feature against Inter as Guardiola eyes the 'Big Ears' trophy.

"One more to go - they feel we are in a position that we will probably never be in again. We will have two days off and then after we have three or four training sessions, prepare for [Inter] Milan, then go there to try," he said after Saturday's win.

"Yes, what a privilege - we are one game away. We already won the FA Cup, we won the Premier League."
