"Thank you Maguire": Saint-Étienne fans troll Lyon supporters before Ligue 1 clash

In the 30th round of France's Ligue 1, Saint-Étienne hosts Lyon, who were painfully knocked out of the Europa League by Manchester United earlier this week.

The rivalry between the fans of these clubs has been tense for a long time, with matches often accompanied by brawls and chaos in the stands. The "Saints" supporters decided not to miss the chance to mock their opponents, bringing Manchester United shirts to the stadium.

Recall that the English club, in a thrilling encounter, snatched a semifinal spot in the European competition from the "Weavers," scoring three goals in the dying moments of extra time.

The winning goal was netted by the "Red Devils" defender Harry Maguire, who earned special thanks from the Saint-Étienne fans. Supporters were spotted with shirts reading "Thank you Maguire," with the numbers 5 and 4 symbolizing the final score of the match between MU and Lyon.

It's worth noting that Saint-Étienne is in a desperate battle for survival and, after 29 matches, is placed second to last in the league table.
