Manchester United fans appeared to be in agreement that Wout Weghorst's goal against Real Betis means all is forgiven after he came under criticism following the defeat at Liverpool.

The Dutch striker, who is on loan with the Reds from Burnley, came under scrutiny this week after footage emerged of the United player touching the 'This is Anfield' sign in the tunnel before Erik ten Hag's men lost at Liverpool on Sunday.

Weghorst released a statement on social media addressing the controversy, claiming that he was simply trying to annoy Netherlands teammate Virgil van Dijk.

Despite coming under criticism, attitudes towards the frontman seemed to have shifted after he got on the scoresheet in United's Europa League win over Real Betis on Thursday night.
