Douglas Luiz's celebration in front of Andre Onana and Raphael Varane backfired after Manchester United got the last laugh in their 2-1 win over Aston Villa.

United took an early lead through Rasmus Hojlund and were in front at the break. The hosts pushed on for an equaliser and eventually Luiz cancelled out Hojlund's early strike in the 67th minute.

Onana had initially saved Clement Lenglet's header at point-blank range, but after United fail to deal with a second ball which saw Luiz take advantage as he fired into the roof of the net from a low Leon Bailey cross.

The Brazilian then appeared to pull out a bizarre celebration, shaking his chest in front of Varane and Onana.
