Nigerian Afrobeats star, Adekunle Gold, is going through a whirlwind of emotions after his beloved football club, Manchester United, suffered a heartbreaking loss to Tottenham Hotspur in the Europa League final.
The “Obimọ” crooner took to his official X (formerly Twitter) page on Wednesday night, May 21, to pour out his frustrations after United failed to clinch the European trophy in a tension-filled clash played in Bilbao, Spain.
Brennan Johnson’s 42nd-minute strike was all Tottenham needed to end their 17-year trophy drought, leaving United players and fans, including Adekunle Gold, in emotional wreckage.

The singer, a die-hard Red Devils supporter, made a series of emotionally charged tweets that sparked concern from his followers.
In one post, he wrote:
“I need space to cry. Please respect my privacy at this time. Thanks.”
Not stopping there, the former YBNL act continued venting, tweeting:
“STOP CALLING MY PHONE!!!!” My people, Tamper mercy with Justice
"I am ashamed! What the f*** is this??? Forgive me @youngskales @Zlatan_Ibile”
Amori, I believed in you!”
His tweets triggered a flood of reactions from fans who sympathised with him while others playfully trolled the singer for taking the loss so personally.
The game itself saw United struggle to find rhythm after Brennan Johnson converted a sharp counter-attack move initiated by Pape Matar Sarr. Despite late efforts by Amad Diallo and Garnacho, Tottenham held their nerve, with a last-ditch goal-line clearance from Van de Ven sealing the fate of the Red Devils.
