Amad's brilliant response to Man United teammate Eric Bailly's tackle on Aston Villa star Emi Buendia
25.07.2022 - 18:43 / manchestereveningnews.co.uk
Amad has poked fun at Eric Bailly's challenge on Emi Buendia in United's 2-2 draw against Aston Villa in Perth with a WWE reference.
The Red Devils defender and the Argentine got involved in a tangle towards the latter stages of their pre-season friendly on Saturday. As the ball trickled towards the near side, Bailly went shoulder-to-shoulder with Buendia before grabbing the player. An image shows the challenge, which looks like the Ivorian is about to hit Buendia with a WWE-style chokeslam.
Buendia wasn't impressed with the United defender and squared up to him despite the height difference. The defender was booked for his role in the clash.

Bailly posted the image on his social media page, which provoked a number of laughing emojis from United stars past and present.
One of those who replied is teammate and countryman Amad, who wrote, in true WWE style: "Don’t try this at home".
Bailly has been impressive during pre-season as Erik ten Hag got his premiership underway in the dugout. Bailly grew unhappy last season due to his lack of playing time under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer and Ralf Rangnick but has done his selection chances no damage following his pre-season showings.
Amad, meanwhile, will hope to compete for a place in the squad after going out on loan to Rangers last season and only featuring sparingly. Many had assumed that the Ivorian would be loaned out, but nothing has yet to develop, and he could remain in Ten Hag's squad for the campaign.
