WATCH: Usain Bolt calls MUTV live on air to congratulate Manchester United after late comeback win

“It was a great match. I’m very happy about it.”

Manchester United secured a hard-earned 2-1 win over Middlesbrough on the last day of 2016, with late goals from Anthony Martial and Paul Pogba delivering a victory in a manner reminiscent of United teams under Sir Alex Ferguson, who was there to see it on his 75^th birthday. Though it made no difference to their place in the table, it felt like a big victory for Jose Mourinho’s side and the manner in which it was achieved proved very satisfying for Manchester United fans, including one of their most famous fans of all. The fastest man in history, Usain Bolt, has made no secret of his love for the Red Devils in the past and so moved was he by the victory that he called MUTV during their post-match analysis with Lou Macari and Gordon McQueen. https://twitter.com/ManUtd/status/815249471302864896 Presenter Mandy Henry seemed a little unconvinced that it is actually Bolt on the line (she admitted as much afterwards), and although it is hard enough to hear exactly what he is saying, Bolt confirmed that it was him. https://twitter.com/usainbolt/status/815244234479595521 https://twitter.com/MandyHenryMedia/status/815245527566716929 We wouldn't count on him making that call Mandy...
