FC Zenit Petersburg Tweets On Twitter Guaranteed To Make Manchester United Keki!
JAKARTA - An odd behavior was carried out by a Russian club, FC Zenit Petersburg, after winning the 2021/2022 Russian League competition. They upload content that is considered satirical to English club, Manchester United.
In their official Twitter account, FC Zenit posted a photo of one of its players with the Russian League champion trophy. At first glance, there is nothing strange and suspicious about the photos uploaded on Sunday, May 8th.
However, the information embedded in the photo is believed to be able to make Manchester United and their fans go crazy.
"Hey @ManUtd fans, this is what a trophy looks like!" write the account.

Zenit's upload was seen as mocking Manchester United, which has never won the English Premier League trophy since 2012/2013. In fact, they last won trophies in the 2016/2017 season, namely the League Cup and Europa League.
In addition, the post is also a form of satire to MU whose performance is bad this season. Let alone being a champion, the Red Devils are also certain to not be able to appear in the Champions League arena next season.
That was thanks to a 0-4 defeat to Brighton and Hove Albion, last weekend. With this defeat, MU stuck in sixth position with 58 points.
With one game remaining, Manchester United certainly cannot catch up with Arsenal, who currently occupies fourth position with 66 points.
Meanwhile, FC Zenit was crowned the champion of the Russian League after defeating arch-rivals Lokomotiv Moscow with a score of 6-1, on Sunday, May 2 in the morning WIB. This is the third title in a row for the team nicknamed Zenitchiki.
