Manchester United's Antony has been described as a 'shameless prat' after he goaded defeated Coventry players with an ear-cupping celebration.

The £85million Brazilian mocked the Sky Blues after his team scraped into the FA Cup final on penalties having chucked away a three-goal lead and then escaped defeat by a tight VAR offside decision.

After Rasmus Hojlund scored the decisive penalty, Antony was among a handful of United players who celebrated, with the overriding emotion one of relief and acute embarrassment.

Gabriel Agbonlahor, the former Aston Villa striker, slammed Antony's behaviour on X: 'Antony cups his ears as he celebrates in front of Coventry players?

'Is this guy the most shameless flop ever to grace our beautiful league? Shame on you Antony, you wouldn't even start for Coventry you prat.'
