Over the weekend, Harry Maguire had quite the rollercoaster of emotions as he lifted the FA Cup on Saturday and then watched Leeds United lose the play-off final to Southampton on Sunday. As a star player for Manchester United, Maguire couldn't help but poke fun at Leeds after their devastating loss. Leeds had the chance to make a quick return to the Premier League but fell short as Southampton secured a 1-0 victory at Wembley.
Despite being slight favorites heading into the final and having a dominant performance in their play-off semi-final against Norwich, Leeds couldn't capitalize on their opportunity. This means they will be staying in the Championship for another season and may face the departure of some key players. Fans of Manchester United, as well as Maguire himself, were surely pleased with the result.
As Maguire watched the match from home, he couldn't resist taking a cheeky dig at Leeds on his Instagram story. He posted a photo of Southampton fans celebrating with the caption, "Hope everyone is having a fantastic Sunday." It was a light-hearted jab, but one that showed Maguire's joy in seeing a rival club suffer defeat.
Maguire had every reason to celebrate as it was a fantastic weekend for him. He lifted the FA Cup trophy on Saturday after an unexpected 2-1 win against Manchester City. Although he was unable to play due to an injury, Maguire was still heavily involved in the festivities and partied late into the night with teammates Rasmus Hojlund and Scott McTominay.
On social media, Maguire shared his excitement about the win, writing, "We're Man United and we're never gonna stop." But now, he will have to shift his focus to recovering from his injury in time for Euro 2024, as he was named in Gareth Southgate's provisional squad. It's sure to be a busy summer for Maguire, but first, he will need to nurse his hangover from the celebrations.
As for Leeds, it's back to the drawing board as they regroup and prepare for another season in the Championship. It's a tough blow for the team, but they will have to bounce back and try again next year. And for Maguire and Manchester United, it's on to the next challenge as they continue to strive for success on the pitch.
