The players and managers who celebrated too early against Manchester United featuring Angel di Maria and Alan Pardew
Manchester United produced a memorable performance to book their place in the Champions League quarter-finals at Paris Saint-Germain’s expense.Trailing 2-0 from the first leg at Old Trafford, United beat the French giants at the Parc-des-Princes 3-1, going through on away goals.The end of the game sparked jubilant scenes in the United camp3

It was a magnificent night for the Red Devils but spare a thought for PSG, who fall in Europe’s premier competition yet again.The result reinforces just why you should never write off United, but it seems not everyone has received the memo.Below you can see the four occasions where players and managers have celebrated against Manchester United, only for it to come back to bite them shortly afterwards.

Angel di Maria

One player who may feel even worse than his team-mates is Angel di Maria and not just because he has been knocked out by his previous employers.In the first leg, Di Maria was in brilliant form, supplying two assists.The Argentine was a very busy man, where he appeared to shout ‘f*** off’ at the United faithful while also pretending to drink a bottle of beer that was thrown on the pitch.Di Maria celebrated too early!3

He wasn’t in such a jolly mood at the Parc-des-Princes though.

Cristiano Ronaldo

When you score an amazing goal, it’s very difficult to not get carried away, even if it is against your former club.But after scoring a brilliant volley for Juventus against United, Cristiano Ronaldo used this opportunity show off his, I’ll admit, impressive abs to his adoring fans.Ronaldo celebrated his sensational opener by showing fans his six pack3

However, Ronaldo left the game with egg on his face after Juan Mata’s free-kick and Leonardo Bonnucci’s own goal stole the victory for the Red Devils.You could say Ronaldo was AB-solutely furious at the end!

Dele Alli

And in April 2018, Dele Alli was guilty of celebrating too early after giving Tottenham the lead against United in an FA Cup semi-final.Alli marked the occasion by doing a floss dance jig, inspired from the game Fortnite as the Spurs section of the Wembley crowd roared.However, goals from Alexis Sanchez and Ander Herrera turned the tie on its head and Spurs were knocked out, leaving Alli subject to derision after the match.

Alan Pardew

But the most famous regrettable celebration surely has to go to Alan Pardew for his infamous ‘FA Cup jig’.He did it as a good luck charm as West Ham manager and it nearly brought the club the crown in 2006, only for Steven Gerrard’s brilliance to cruelly take it away from them at the death.Pardew did not learn his lesson ten years on, however, and continued to do it when he was Crystal Palace boss.He was filmed doing the dance when Jason Puncheon gave Palace a 78th-minute lead but Juan Mata equalised for United before Jesse Lingard fired home the winner in extra-time and Pardew was denied the opportunity to dance the night away…
