Jesse Lingard has been praised after he made a class gesture this morning to AFC Wimbledon fans when they missed out on £500.
Just less than 24 hours after he made an appearance and scored for Manchester United against Arsenal last night, he appeared on the Sky Sports show and had the opportunity to win the Wombles fans some money.
However he stepped up and had his effort brilliantly saved by Hashtag United’s Jacko…
What a save from Hashtag Jacko! ?

Lingard is currently getting plenty of reaction following his goal last night to help United knock the Gunners out of the FA Cup.
His goal celebration is one of the reasons why as he went full Michael Jackson by doing the ‘moonwalk’ before also doing the ‘milly rock’.
The BBC cameras missed it but the fans got it all on record and it has gone viral…
