Man United Fan Account Jokes That Bayern Munich Have “Learnt How to Win 7-0” After Bundesliga Thrashing
Manchester United fan account @UTDTrey posted a video clip with the caption “Bayern have already learnt how to win 7-0….” shortly after Bayern Munich’s 7-0 victory over Union Berlin (featuring a Harry Kane milestone and Michael Olise hat-trick). The post is light-hearted banter referencing Manchester United’s upcoming or historical vulnerability to heavy defeats (including past high-scoring losses). It is trending in football circles due to the timely link between Bayern’s dominant result, the account’s large following (~1.8M), and classic Premier League/Champions League rivalry trolling.
