Watch: So Shinji Kagawa just went and provided this tasty assist

Very tasty

Robert Redmond

We miss Shinji Kagawa in English football.

Mostly because the Evil Kagawa parody account was hilarious. Even Manchester United fans might have had a chuckle, despite the club’s terrible form last season.

Kagawa himself showed flickering signs of being a potentially great playmaker, but failed to settle at Old Trafford.

The Japanese midfielder is back at Borussia Dortmund though, and brilliantly set-up this goal today. Kagawa flicked a deft pass with the outside of his boot perfectly into the path of Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang to slot home.

If only he’d consistently found that magic touch while playing for United, we’d probably still have the Evil Kagawa account.
