Manchester United have condemned video footage of fans hurling abuse at Jesse Lingard after their FA Cup win at Derby County.
Lingard was targeted at Pride Park, and United have indicated they will be contacting Derby officials to see if they assist them in identifying those responsible for the appalling abuse directed at Lingard, 27.
Insults hurled at Lingard included: “Jesse, you're s***, Jesse you're w***. Jesse you're s***, Jesse f*** off", while one fan was also heard to shout “zero goals and assists in 2019" towards the midfielder.
Lingard's United team-mate, Luke Shaw, appeared in the doorframe of the bus and confronted fans after hearing the abuse and insults as Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's side prepared to leave the stadium.
Morning.
