Manchester United ace Marouane Fellaini has image of his gurning face from the Super Cup final immortalised as a mural... and he loves it

Manchester United midfielder Marouane Fellaini has become the latest footballer to find himself immortalised as a piece of street art... bizarrely in the form of his own gurning face.

The Belgian recently featured for the Red Devils during their Super Cup final defeat to Spanish giants Real Madrid.

During the clash Fellaini was hit in the face by the ball after going up for a header, though one photographer's exquisite skill meant the moment was able to be uniquely captured forever.

The image of Fellaini's scrunched up face, mouth agape in recoil from the impact of the ball, was an instant hit on social media.
