Antony showcased his trademark ‘AnTOURny’ skill during Manchester United’s clash with Sheriff – but the sequence resulted in a goal kick.
United were chasing an opener at Old Trafford after heavily dominating the first half-hour of the match. The Brazilian then decided it was time to spice up the goalless affair and displayed his skilful spin before attempting to create an attack.
Unfortunately for the 22-year-old, the ball went straight out of play for a Sheriff goal kick – ultimately killing off any chance of a goal.
"Embarrassing!"

Robbie Savage on commentary called the passage of play “embarrassing” for wasting an opportunity.
The Reds went on to dominate the game and take all three points.
Antony was substituted off at half-time along with Lisandro Martinez.
Y’all are overreacting, he did a skill and a misplaced pass get over it, he is an amazing footballer, chill out my drillahs, wagwan, wag1 peace out
