Old Trafford is loud tonight and pretty much all of that noise is coming from Manchester United.
So much noise that the United faithful have requested a song or two from the FK Astana fans…
As picked up on by Manchester Evening News reporter Samuel Luckhurst, the United fans have started singing “Borat, give us a song,” towards the away end.

Astana are the champions of the Kazakhstani league and 14-years ago the hilarious satire film Boart: Cuktual Learnings of America for Make Benefit Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan was in cinemas.

Baron Cohen, who plays Borat, acts bigoted in order to expose the bigotry in others.
It’s all a bit of fun but time will tell if the Astana fans respond.
