PICTURE: Official Manchester United Twitter in European Cup gaffe

The official Manchester United Twitter account today went for a walk down memory lane and posted a picture of the players lifting the European Cup in 1968. They were the first English club to win the competition.

Unfortunately, they got the score wrong, with United beating Benfica 4-1. The game finished 1-1 and United then scored three in extra time, with goals from George Best, Sir Bobby Charlton and Brian Kidd.
