Varane confronts Douglas Luiz following Scott McTominay's late Man United winner

Raphael Varane appeared to get the last laugh on Douglas Luiz after confronting the Brazilian following Manchester United's late winner against Aston Villa.

Scott McTominay netted in the 86th minute at Villa Park, as United moved just five points behind their opponents with a victory.

Aston Villa looked as though they would be taking a point from the contest, after Luiz netted an equaliser from close range with just over 20 minutes to play.

The Frenchman with his arms stretched out walked over to Luiz as the Brazilian picked up the ball, and the pair appeared to exchange words and get in each other's faces.

Referee Robert Jones saw the confrontation and got between them to stop the row.

Meanwhile, another image appeared to show Diogo Dalot mocking Luiz with his own shimmy as he celebrated in front of United's fans.

Luiz's celebration appeared to backfire on both himself and the team, as Villa suffered their third consecutive home defeat.

Man United boss Erik ten Hag, suggested after the game that the Brazilian's shimmy of the shoulders may have 'fuelised' (fuelled) his players.

Club legend Rio Ferdinand also poked fun at the Villa man on social media afterwards, posting a photo of Luiz doing the shimmy with the caption: 'U ok?'

Rasmus Hojlund, who scored the opening goal of the match, took his time to get off the pitch as he was replaced by
