Swansea City's Tweet About Eric Bailly Comes Back To Haunt Them

Eric Bailly not only broke Swansea City fans hearts, but also the person who manages the clubs Twitter account.

Swansea hosted Manchester United in the early kick-off in the second round of Premier League fixtures.

And Jose Mourinho's side took the lead in the first half courtesy of an unlikely goal scorer.

The Ivorian defender pounced onto the ball, scoring, after Paul Pogba rattled the cross bar with a bullet header.

Though moments before finding the back of the net, Bailly was the subject of a Tweet from Swansea mocking his clearing ability.

"Bailly clears... Literally out of the Liberty Stadium."

The Tweet came back to bite them in the ass, and, needless to say, they were bombarded.

United eventually secured all three points following goals from Romelu Lukaku, Paul Pogba and Anthony Martial.
