Manchester United player Brandon Williams in cheeky Barcelona dig as stars celebrate Carabao Cup win

Brandon Williams appeared to send a cheeky message to Barcelona as a cluster of Manchester United youngsters joined the club's senior stars on the Wembley turf to celebrate their Carabao Cup final triumph over Newcastle United on Sunday afternoon.

The Reds ended their six-year wait for a trophy with a relatively comfortable 2-0 win over the Magpies, courtesy of first-half goals from Casemiro and Marcus Rashford. The Brazilian opened the scoring with 33 minutes on the clock, planting a firm header past goalkeeper Loris Karius, ahead of Rashford's deflected effort doubling United's lead just six minutes later.

Newcastle dominated possession for long spells in the second half but never looked capable of threatening David de Gea's clean sheet, meaning United held on to secure their first trophy of the Erik ten Hag era. Bruno Fernandes could have added a third late on but he squandered a great opportunity to increase the Reds' lead.
