Twitter reacts as Manchester United hammered by Dortmund
It’s a preseason friendly in another continent but that hasn’t stopped the internet feasting on the result between Manchester United and Borussia Dortmund this afternoon.
The two sides played in the International Champions Cup in Shanghai and the Germans hockeyed Jose Mourinho’s men 4-1.
Henrikh Mkhitaryan opened his account with a second-half goal, but United were already 3-0 down at that stage and Dortmund added another before the final whistle.

With many United fans also going into meltdown.
I don't care if it's a pre-season friendly & how many more games Dortmund played! That was fucking terrible #mufc

After that first half, United need to buy a CB. Phil Jones has been woeful. Lacks composure & calmness. #MUFC pic.twitter.com/rcaFEKWCZz

MOURINHO NEEDS TO GO, HE HAD LONG ENOUGH NOW AND IT CLEARLY NOT WORKING. WE NEED FRESH BLOOD #MUFC
Some tried to be the voice of reason and point out the madness of judging a team on this evidence.
ABSOLUTLEY ! Result means nothing particularly over there! Conditions are awful for footballers!

But they were swiftly drowned out by the jokers.
