Premier League giants Manchester United continued their rough patch this season as they faced a disappointing 2-3 loss against Turkish club Galatasaray in the UEFA Champions League 2023-24 group stage. With this loss, the Red Devils are dropped to the bottom of Group A, and Man United fans including famous YouTube streamer IShowSpeed exasperated with the continuous failure of the club.
The Group A clash between Man United and Galatasaray saw the visitors score three goals against the home side at the Old Trafford. With this loss, United are winless in their opening two fixtures in the UCL 2023-24 and are placed at the bottom with 0 points while Bayern are at the top with two wins in two matches, and Galatasaray have managed the second spot with four points in two matches.
After Man United's disappointing loss, Darren Jason Watkins Jr. (IShowSpeed) took to X (formerly known as Twitter) and expressed his frustration by stating, " That's it. That seals the deal. I am no longer a United fan. I've been a United member since 1987 and a season ticket holder since 1999. I'm not going to renew my season ticket. Ten Hag and Onana are outlawed as of today."
Speed also talked about switching his loyalty to Cristiano Roanldo's Saudi Pro League club Al-Nassr and said, "I will become a fan of Al Nassr now, where they actually know how to run a football club." The Saudi club were quick to respond to Speed and wrote, " You're already one of us! See you soon at @VictoryArena_sa"
Speed also reacted to Al-Nassr's tweet and commented, "My club."
The Red Devils took the lead at the Theater of Dreams as Rasmus Hojlund scored the opener in the 17th minute, however, Wilfred Zaha scored an equaliser after six minutes to end the first half.
The second half was full of action as three goals, a missed penalty attempt, and a red card was shown in the space of 15 minutes. Hojlund again took the English club in the lead with his 67th-minute goal, however, Galatasaray forward Muhammed Kerem Aktürkoğlu levelled the game 2-2 after just four minutes.
Galatasaray's star forward Mauro Icardi was awarded a chance to take the Turkish side on a lead in the 78th minute as they received a penalty on Casemiro's red card following United goalkeeper Andre Onana's error. However, the Argentine missed the penalty but went on to score the winner after a couple of minutes to secure three points for his side.
