Oxlade-Chamberlain involved in row with Man Utd fans as smiling star told to ‘f*** off’ while going for fist bump
LIVERPOOL star Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain appeared to be involved in a row with a pair of Manchester United fans after full-time at Old Trafford.
The midfielder was clearly told to “F*** off” while talking to one fan, while another rejected his offer of a fist bump.
It’s not clear why the 26-year-old went to the home fans after the end of the 1-1 draw.
Some viewers on social media claimed that Ox had been getting some stick from that section of the crowd while warming up.
At full time the star went over to the section and – with a wide grin on his face – offered them a handshake.
It was obviously rejected by the rival fans after they had just seen their side throw away another lead.
Ox, still smiling then walks off and gives a little shrug of his shoulders.
The midfielder came on with Liverpool chasing the game at Old Trafford after Marcus Rashford had controversially opened the scoring for Manchester United.
Divock Origi appeared to be fouled in the build-up to the United goal, although VAR later stuck with referee Martin Atkinson’s decision.
