Manchester United trolled by minor league Welsh Club
Aberystwyth Town FC.
Yes, we had to Google them too.
This small Welsh club, who play their football in the Welsh Premier League (had to Google that, too), are getting one over football giants, Manchester United on both social media and on the field.

That tweet received over 15 thousand retweets and got them in the spotlight in national media outlets such as The Independent and the Metro.
Manchester United are, off course, not playing in any European games after their dismal EPL performance last season.
This Welsh club, however, will be making their European debut against another minnow, Derry City in the first qualifying round of the Europa League on July 3.
Granted, it's still going to be a long journey for the club, but you can't blame them for being excited and indulging in a little trolling.

Let's hope that the crowd attendance of the match is higher than their average crowd attendance of 402.
In any case, we would like to wish Aberystwyth Town good luck.
To Manchester United.
