OUSMANE DEMBELE had a face like thunder while posting with his Man of the Match award – just moments after REFUSING it.
The incident occurred after Paris Saint-Germain survived a scare at Aston Villa to reach the Champions League semis.
Dembele’s French side raced into a 2-0 goal lead to extend the aggregate score to 5-1.
But Villa mounted a stunning comeback as they made it 3-2 on the night and 5-4 overall.
Unai Emery’s men were ultimately unable to find an aggregate leveller as they exited Europe in front of their home supporters.
Yet their second-leg win gave PSG huge cause for concern.
They will now face either Arsenal or Real Madrid to reach the final in Munich.
And PSG’s stars know they can’t afford to make any further slip-ups if they want to finally get their hands on the top prize.
Dembele certainly did not hide his emotions at full-time.
The winger is enjoying a splendid season with 32 goals and 11 assists in 42 games.
Dembele bagged an assist at Villa Park last night, with his overall performance securing the Man of the Match award.
But video footage showed him REFUSING to accept the award while walking off the field.
Dembele pulled an unimpressed expression as a member of staff tried handing him the trophy.
Later on, he posed for a photo with his prize.
But Dembele had a face like thunder as he reflected on PSG’s defeat.
Fans were quick to react online, with one saying: “Demebele’s mentality is insane.”
Another declared: “In tears, they forced him to take it.”
One noted: “He isn’t happy with himself and how it went down.”
Another added: “He looks like he’s been insulted.”
