Man Utd hero Evra denies seeking to insult PSG fans (sort of!)

Former Manchester United captain Patrice Evra insists he never sought to insult PSG fans on social media this week.

Evra posted a rallying message to United players before PSG's Champions League win on Tuesday.

And after the game, Evra stated: "I will write in French for some pseudo supporters of PSG who exist only on social networks and who do not understand English, because the true supporters of PSG are what I heard last night from the beginning to the end of the match. Congratulations to them.

"My message was a message of encouragement to my Manchester United players and I have never disrespected PSG and I never said we would win!!! But unfortunately some still interpret things as they want ... But in any case, I'm waiting for you when you win this trophy that your club has never won. See you soon I hope.

"Good luck and from there we can speak the same language (pay attention to the remontada anyway, because you are great experts). For now it is not Paris who is the Champion League winner!!!"
