FOOTIE fans were stunned when a former Manchester United star made a shock appearance in the Europa League final.
Atalanta got their hands on the trophy with Bayer Leverkusen beating Xavi Alonso at the Dublin Arena on Wednesday night.
The Italians won 3-0 thanks to a sensational hat-trick from former Charlton Athletic star Adamola Luckman.

One wrote on X: “Why is John O’Shea carrying the Europa League trophy?”
Another said: “That’s right, only John O’Shea took out the trophy.
“Is there anything John O’Shea can’t do?”
And then he said: “He started the Europa League final and for a moment he was very confused as to why John O’Shea took out the trophy.”

Another chimed in: “Wait was that John O’Shea? Haha how random.”

Former Red Devils star O’Shea was seemingly given the honor of taking out the trophy as he was a former Ireland international.
