After Manchester City completed the treble by beating Inter Milan to win the Champions League, Manchester United’s Brandon Williams took to Instagram to remind fans the Red Devils did it first.
Manchester United defender Brandon Williams has taken aim at Red Devils legend Rio Ferdinand and Manchester City following the Champions League final.
City beat Inter Milan 1-0 thanks to a goal from Rodri to win the Champions League and complete a historic treble in the process, having already won the Premier League and the FA Cup. Pep Guardiola’s side are the first team to complete the feat since rivals United did 24 years ago under Sir Alex Ferguson.
And Williams decided to remind fans that United did it first, writing on his Instagram story: “Nobody wants a sloppy seconds.” Williams then turned his attention to Ferdinand, who was working as a pundit on BT Sport’s coverage of the final.
The 22-year-old took issue with Ferdinand praising City’s achievements, branding him “fake”. Williams wrote: @rioferdy5 Bet you don’t congratulate if you was player keeep the same morals. too face is boring.”
He continued: “You don’t praise simple as. Fakessssssssss for [money emoji].” It comes after Ferdinand said City’s players have become “immortal” by winning the treble and labelled them a “fantastic team”.
Speaking on BT Sport, Ferdinand said: ” Immortal. Statues galore. They’ve earned it. Listen, this team have played a brand of football that is looked at around the world and is admired.
“This has been a project and a process for many years now with Pep Guardiola coming in, but these players have produced some football that has been out of this world individually, but as a collective this team will go down in history.
