Copenhagen defender Denis Vavro has called Manchester United's Alejandro Garnacho "a clown" for his antics during the two teams' Champions League clashes this season.
Garnacho was caught scuffing the penalty spot late in last month's meeting between the two, when Andre Onana saved late on to seal a 1-0 victory, and was accused of trying to do the same when Copenhagen were awarded a penalty on Wednesday.
Onana was powerless to stop Diogo Goncalves this time, however, as Copenhagen equalised on the night as part of their dramatic 4-3 comeback.
After the game, Vavro did not hold back with his verdict of Garnacho.
"I saw that he tried to do something about the penalty kick, but Kevin Diks stood in front and blocked," Vavro told Bold. "It is the second time. And then on our pitch? To me he is a clown.
"He has the mentality of a child when he tries something like this again, in an away game. It's one thing at home in the 97th minute, but here in the first half? I don’t understand him trying to do that."
Vavro was not the only Copenhagen player to hit out at Garnacho after the game, with midfielder Lukas Lerager claiming the United winger needs to humble himself.
"Sometimes people in the big clubs have to bow their heads a little," Lerager said. "Just know that they are human too.
"There was a situation where I took the ball from him and he threw himself around, and then I told him some things that weren't so nice, but still with respect for him as a person.
"It just doesn’t suit such a man. And he needs to know."
