BRYAN MBEUMO and Amad Diallo took their celebrations off the pitch and into the dressing room by stripping off for a cheeky dance after Manchester United’s 4-2 win over Brighton.
The pair were electric down the right flank as United stormed to a third straight Premier League victory with Mbeumo bagging a brilliant brace to sink the Seagulls.
After Mbeumo fired home his first on 61 minutes, the Cameroonian and his Ivorian team-mate whipped up Old Trafford with some slick dance moves inspired by Afrobeats hit Shake It to the Max.

Meanwhile, Amad has made the right-wing-back spot his own, his energy and flair becoming a key weapon in Amorim’s new-look United.
