Spurs and Manchester United fans will love the hilarious sign mocking Man City

Tottenham Hotspur and Manchester City shared an epic tussle at the Etihad Stadium on Wednesday night and now it seems a Manchester United fan is still having a bit of fun with the result.

Spurs led 1-0 ahead of the trip to Manchester and were even 2-1 in front in the Champions League quarter-final second leg but City pulled it back and took a 4-3 aggregate lead in the second half.

Fernando Llorente's bundled goal, however, levelled the tie and allowed Mauricio Pochettino's men to progress on the away goals rule.

That was only after a dramatic conclusion to the game which saw Raheem Sterling find the net for what he thought was his hat-trick goal, only for VAR to rule it out for offside, with Sergio Aguero the culprit.

Now it seems a Manchester United fan has been having fun with a sign in Greater Manchester ahead of a rematch between Spurs and Man City on Saturday lunchtime. The sign in question has been hilariously doctored to include a VAR reference and Spurs fans will love it.

It reads: "City v Tottenham. Sat 20/04 - 12:30

"Take the tram to the game. Picc - the Etihad in 10 minutes.

"It's by VAR the quickest option!"

It is the latest in a now long line of traffic and football warnings which have been displayed in recent weeks in the North West.
