Man Utd fans notice Wout Weghorst's 'kiss of death' seconds before Solly March penalty miss

Wout Weghorst wrote his name into the annals of football s***housery by kissing the ball moments before Solly March's penalty miss.

Brighton winger March blazed his effort high over the bar during the penalty shootout to give Victor Lindelof the chance to send Manchester United into the FA Cup final, one he took. Sunday's game went to penalties after a goalless 120 minutes at Wembley.

Weghorst has divided opinion since joining United on loan from Burnley in January to replace Cristiano Ronaldo, who left Erik ten Hag's side by mutual consent two months earlier. Yet his now famous ball kiss ensures his status as an Old Trafford cult hero.
