World Fame for This Malaysian Football Fan who predicted Manchester United's remarkable victory away to Paris St-Germain that Lukaku would score two goals, PSG would get one back

Hardly anyone expected a heavily depleted Manchester United squad to beat PSG 3-1 at le Parc des Princes, but this Malaysian fan did.

Malaysian Manchester United fan Timmy Chin predicted before the team’s remarkable victory away to Paris St-Germain that Romelu Lukaku would score two goals, PSG would get one back – thus setting the table for a Marcus Rashford winner in injury time.

And in an incredible stroke of coincidence, that is exactly what happened as the Belgian forward grabbed two, with Bernat getting on the scoresheet for PSG.

Marcus Rashford then stepped up in injury time with a crucial penalty to seal the victory for Manchester United and help them progress to the Champions League quarterfinals.

Duly, Manchester United’s official Twitter account replied to the tweet, leading to a number of players from the club to react to it, including captain on the night Ashley Young, who promised the fan a signed shirt.

Moreover, he also said that he would send another shirt with all the players signing on it, should he manage to get the scoreline prediction right for United’s game against Arsenal this weekend.

Clearly enjoying his moment in the spotlight, the fan doubled up by posting an image of him decked in a Manchester United jersey, setting fire to a Manchester City one.
