The official Twitter account of Specsavers trolled Manchester United on Monday morning after the club erroneously tagged David de Gea in a congratulatory post over an appearance record.
United’s social media account wrote: “A special day for @D_DeGea”, alongside an image celebrating forward Antony Elanga’s 50th appearance for the club. The Sweden international appeared as a substitute in the club’s two-goal victory at Leeds on Sunday as De Gea played in his 400th match for United.
Elanga, who has played a peripheral role for Erik ten Hag’s side this season, appeared as a substitute in injury time replacing Marcus Rashford. It saw him hit the half-century milestone for the Red Devils, for whom he debuted in the 2020/21 campaign.
