Man United Mock Roma After Comeback Win
Manchester United celebrated their comeback victory over Roma both on and off the pitch, targeting the Giallorossi with a sharp tweet as the match concluded.
Roma squandered a two-goal advantage at Old Trafford last night: they netted twice within the opening 17 minutes but surrendered three goals in the second half, suffering a 3-2 defeat.

Manchester United had not secured a win since September, whereas Roma had suffered just a single loss across all competitions prior to this encounter.
In a parallel scenario, Roma had previously fallen to Real Madrid in October, losing 4-3 at the Stadio Olimpico and conceding three goals in the final moments.
Manchester United continued their celebrations on and off the pitch, turning to X, formerly Twitter, to share a series of playful posts following their success.

One post displayed stadium screens showing results from past Champions League meetings with Roma, alongside last night’s triumph. The scoreboard emphasized their decisive 7-1 win in April 2007 and the 6-2 victory in 2021.
Manchester United accompanied the image with a straightforward yet appropriate caption: “Absolute Cinema.”
