FC Copenhagen players have given a damning verdict on the youngster after he attempted to scuff the penalty spot again.<\/p>\n<p>Garnacho played the whole 90 minutes as Copenhagen won 4-3 in a dramatic encounter in Denmark. The hosts came from behind twice and scored two late goals to turn the game on its head.<\/p>\n<p>United had led 2-0 before Marcus Rashford was controversially sent off after a VAR intervention. Copenhagen immediately pulled one back before they were awarded a penalty after Harry Maguire was adjudged to have handled in his own area.<\/p>\n<p>Garnacho was seen scuffing up the penalty spot in the reverse fixture at Old Trafford two weeks ago before Jordan Larsson saw his stoppage-time effort saved by Andre Onana. Copenhagen players were wise to him doing that again on Wednesday.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Click here to join our Man Utd WhatsApp community to be the first to receive breaking and exclusive United news.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p> <strong> Read more&#8230; <\/strong> <strong>Man Utd suffer nightmare Copenhagen loss as livid Hojlund rips into team-mate<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.images.express.co.uk\/img\/dynamic\/67\/590x\/secondary\/Man-Utd-news-Alejandro-Garnacho-penalty-spot-5056991.jpg?r=1699522887366\"><\/p>\n<p>Defender Denis Vavro has called Garnacho out, claiming it was childish behaviour from the 19-year-old. Vavro told bold.dk: &#8220;I saw that he tried to do something about the penalty kick, but Kevin Diks stood in front and blocked.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It is the second time. And then [he tries doing it] 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.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;One thing is at home in the 97th minute, but here in the first half. I don&#8217;t understand him trying to do that.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Lukas Lerager scored Copenhagen&#8217;s equaliser to make the game 3-3. He didn&#8217;t see Garnacho trying to scuff the penalty spot but he criticised the teenager for his in-game tactics and told him his opinion during the match.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li> <svg width=\"24\" height=\"24\" viewbox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"> <g clip-path=\"url(#clip0_1078_5986)\"> <\/path> <\/path> <\/g> <defs> <clippath> <rect width=\"23.4329\" height=\"23.4329\" fill=\"white\" transform=\"translate(0 0.134262)\"><\/rect> <\/clippath> <\/defs> <\/svg> Support fearless journalism<\/li>\n<li> <svg width=\"24\" height=\"24\" viewbox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"> <g clip-path=\"url(#clip0_1078_5986)\"> <\/path> <\/path> <\/g> <defs> <clippath> <rect width=\"23.4329\" height=\"23.4329\" fill=\"white\" transform=\"translate(0 0.134262)\"><\/rect> <\/clippath> <\/defs> <\/svg> Read The Daily Express online, advert free<\/li>\n<li> <svg width=\"24\" height=\"24\" viewbox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"> <g clip-path=\"url(#clip0_1078_5986)\"> <\/path> <\/path> <\/g> <defs> <clippath> <rect width=\"23.4329\" height=\"23.4329\" fill=\"white\" transform=\"translate(0 0.134262)\"><\/rect> <\/clippath> <\/defs> <\/svg> Get super-fast page loading<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.images.express.co.uk\/img\/logo\/logo-premium-subscription.png\"><\/p>\n<p> <strong> Don&#8217;t miss&#8230; <\/strong> <br \/> <strong>Arsenal can sell four players in January to raise money for Ivan Toney transfer[TRANSFERS] <\/strong> <br \/> <strong>Man Utd have &#8216;gone too far&#8217; with Sancho treatment as PFA backed to get involved[VERDICT] <\/strong> <br \/> <strong>Man Utd outcast Sancho handed lifeline as Premier League cult hero wants meeting[QUOTES] <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Lerager said: &#8220;Sometimes people in the big clubs have to bow their heads a little.
