Alejandro Garnacho is once again in the spotlight—but for all the wrong reasons. The Manchester United youngster, who previously stirred controversy by mocking **Pedri’s celebration** after a Europa League match against Barcelona, is now facing a wave of online backlash after United’s crushing **7-0 defeat to Liverpool** at Anfield.
**The Controversy:**
After United edged out Barcelona at Old Trafford, Garnacho imitated Pedri’s trademark celebration—even though he hadn’t scored. The move, especially as Pedri was injured and didn’t feature in that game, was widely viewed as disrespectful by Barcelona fans.
**The Fallout:**
Following United’s historic collapse against their fiercest rivals, fans across social media seized the moment to mock Garnacho:
* “So-called generational talent… loses 7-0. Karma’s real.”
* “Enjoying the view, Garnacho?”
* “Pedri at 18: winning titles. Garnacho at 18: getting embarrassed. Not the same.”
Barcelona fans relished what they saw as poetic justice, highlighting the irony of Garnacho’s taunt being followed by one of United’s worst-ever defeats.
**Takeaway:**
What started as harmless trolling has turned into a harsh lesson in humility. Garnacho still has a bright future, but this moment serves as a reminder—**in football, pride often comes before the fall, and karma rarely misses.**
