Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's team booked their place in the quarterfinals of the FA Cup with a 3-0 win over Derby.

After the game, a video on social media showed fans subjecting Lingard to a torrent of foul-mouth abuse as he got on the bus alongside his teammates.

United have condemned the incident and are offering support to Lingard.

Lingard, 27, played the full 90 minutes against Derby but has not been part of Solskjaer's starting lineup in the league since New Year's Day against Arsenal, and has scored twice across all competitions this season.
