VICTOR LINDELOF allegedly hurled obscene abuse at the Wolves bench during Man United’s FA Cup defeat at Molineux yesterday.

The Red Devils crashed out the cup after Diogo Jota and Raul Jimenez scored to send Wolves through to the semi-final at Wembley.

The Swedish defender was given a straight red card by ref Martin Atkinson before VAR intervened and downgraded it to a yellow.

While the decision was being made, Lindelof, 24, became embroiled in a furious exchange with the Wolves bench and appeared to shout obscenities in Portuguese.

The majority of Wolves staff, including manager Nuno Espirito Santo, are Portuguese and the sentiments would not have been lost on most of them.

Players Jota, Ruben Neves, Joao Moutinho, Helder Costa, Ivan Cavaleiro and Ruben Vinagre also hail from Portugal.

Lipreaders have claimed Lindelof shouted: “Vai tomar no cu, vai tomar no cu, filho da puta!”

The rough English translation is: “Go f*** yourself, son of a b****!”

United‘s defeat meant Ole Gunnar Solskjaer lost back to back games for the first time since he took charge at Old Trafford.

Wolves progressed to the semi-final and find out who they play after the Millwall vs Brighton quarter-final.
