The brilliant Harry Maguire reaction after his Manchester United winner

Manchester United centre-back Harry Maguire quoted his chant after scoring the vital goal to beat FC Copenhagen in the Champions League on Tuesday night.

United's first half performance was less than vintage and they were fortunate not to be behind at the break after the Dane's hit the post early doors. Tactical tweaks in the second half produced a much better display from the Reds who eventually scored in the 72nd minute.

Maguire rose highest at the back post in front of the Stretford End to send the home fans into ecstasy. Erik ten Hag will also be thankful for Andre Onana thanks to his heroics in the dying stages.

After the away side were awarded a penalty for a Scott McTominay high boot, Onana produced an incredible stop with the last action of the match to win the game for his team. Jubilant celebrations at Old Trafford followed after yet more late drama.

These scenes continued on social media after the game as Maguire celebrated the United win. Sharing an image of his header on Instagram, the 30-year-old accompanied the photo with the caption: "His head's f****** massive, 1, 2, 3, 4..."

This is a nod towards the chant sung in his honour for both United and England. The former captain also added what he called a 'special photo' to his story which showed himself and Rasmus Hojlund running away in celebration moments after the goal.

The result at the Theatre of Dreams moves United up to third in Group A, a point behind Galatasaray who lost at home to Bayern Munich earlier in the night.
