Brentford troll Man Utd after Man City loss with shock first-half of football

Brentford ruthlessly trolled Manchester United after the Red Devils went 4-0 down to Manchester City at half-time.

City ran rampant in the first half at the Etihad courtesy of double strikes from Erling Haaland and Phil Foden. The duo both scored again in the second period to earn hat-tricks.

And United failed to peg one back until the 56th minute when Anthony got on the scoresheet. Anthony Martial added a late double for the away side but the damage was already done with the game ending 6-3.

The Bees dealt United the same hand when they hit four past Erik ten Hag's side in the first half back in August. And Thomas Frank's side wasted no time reminding the Red Devils of the mauling they dealt them after the City defeat on Sunday.

When the first concluded, Brentford's official Twitter account goaded: "Brentford Man City…4-0 up at half-time," along with a pair of clasped hands. The witty tweet sent Brentford fans into a frenzy and they flocked to the post to share their amusement.

The Bees' cheeky dig swiftly went viral on the platform, earning over 34 thousand retweets and just under 220,000 thousand likes. It was a much needed boost for Brentford after their drab draw with Bournemouth on Saturday.

But United fans were clearly unimpressed with the post, with one fan hitting back: "Where's your Premier League title?" However, United's wait for a Prem title looks set to continue after their loss to City today left them 12 points behind league leaders Arsenal.
