PSG fans have launched a desperate bid for Manchester United to be kicked out of the Champions League.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer ’s side completed a record-breaking win over Paris Saint-Germain last week when they won 3-1 in Paris to overturn a 2-0 deficit.

It was the first time in the competition's history a two-goal lead had been overturned in the second leg of a knockout clash.

Now, heartbroken PSG fans unable to accept their side after they had looked home and dry for the quarter-finals are out are clutching at straws in a bid to have United thrown out of the Champions League.

And supporters have even accused UEFA of being "anti-PSG".

Some fans noticed that Mason Greenwood, who was brought on as a late substitute for United, did not have the correct numbers and lettering on the back of his shirt, reports Metro .

In fact, the 17-year-old forward’s letters and numbers appeared to have been taken from PSG’s club shop as the French side’s badge was visible on the bottom of both numbers on the back of Greenwood’s shirt.

And a group of PSG fans reckon United should be turfed out of the Champions League for breaking UEFA’s equipment regulations, with the French club installed in the quarter-finals in their place.

One PSG fan on Instagram pointed out United’s kit error and said: "Manchester could be disqualified from the Champions League as Greenwood’s numbering was from PSG’s club shop and UEFA’s rules stipulate that all numbering must be identical."

And another fan added: "It’s not bulls****. UEFA’s rules clearly say that numbering must be identical for each player on the same team. But it seems to me impossible for UEFA to apply this rule because we know that they are anti-PSG and we can do nothing about it."

United fans have no need to fear, however.

UEFA’s regulations only stipulate that a player’s number and lettering should fit within the specified dimensions and that it should be clearly contrasted with the colour of the shirt.

Given that Greenwood’s numbers and letting were taken straight from PSG’s Jordan kit which was specifically made for the Champions League, United ensured that they did not fall foul of UEFA’s rules.
