Vine: Southampton sub Dusan Tadic forgets jersey and shin-guards, still scores

'Told you I didn't need a jersey!'

Patrick McCarry

You knew he’d do something after all the fuss he created

Dušan Tadić looked like a man who could not be bothered after coming on midway through the second-half against Manchester United at Old Trafford.

The Serbian eventually came off the bench following a five-minute delay. He had left his jersey in the dressing room and also misplaced his shin-guards.

When he took to the field, he set up Graziano Pellé and slotted home the Saints’ opener after his team-mate struck the post. He then proceeded to toss away his jersey again, flex his muscles in front of the away fans and pick up a yellow card. Eventful 10 minutes for the lad.

United could not fashion an equaliser – Juan Mata blazed over from close range – and Southampton won 1-0 for their first league victory at Old Trafford since 1988.
