Harry Maguire has denied that he was gesturing towards his critics after celebrating his goal for England against Albania by cupping his ears.
The defender opened the scoring in the 5-0 drubbing at Wembley with a thumping header but he was quickly mocked on social media for the celebration, which was taken as a response to criticism for his terrible recent form for Manchester United.
The celebration was also slammed by ITV pundits at half-time, with Roy Keane describing Maguire's antics as 'embarrassing' and saying he had been 'a disgrace' for his club in their harrowing Premier League defeats to Leicester, Liverpool and Manchester City.
