Thomas Meunier angers PSG fans after liking Manchester United post celebrating Watford win

Thomas Meunier has provoked the ire of Paris Saint-Germain fans after liking a post on Instagram celebrating Manchester Uniteds win over Watford – only a few weeks after losing to the Red Devils in the Champions League.

The Belgian defender has made no secret of his support for United, having followed them since he was a kid, and he was just as excited as every other fan to see how Ole Gunnar Solskjaer got on in his first match as full-time manager.

Despite Watford having a number of chances, goals from Marcus Rashford and Anthony Martial in either half were enough to secure all three points as the first match of Solskjaers permanent reign started with a 2-1 win.

Meunier clearly enjoyed it too, liking a post from Manchester Uniteds official Instagram account after the game along with over half a million other fans.
