MARCUS RASHFORD was hilariously trolled by Wolves’ DJ on his return to the Manchester United squad.
The Red Devils secured all three points in a 4-3 thriller last night as Kobbie Mainoo scored the winner in the 97th minute.
ReutersRashford returned to the starting XI for the first time since his 12-hour tequila-drinking bender in Belfast.
The 26-year-old had a boozy night out last week and phoned into training sick – only for the true reason for his absence to be exclusively revealed by The Sun.
Rashford was dropped from the squad for the FA Cup win over Newport and fined two weeks wages totalling £650,000 as punishment.
Man Utd claim he has “taken responsibility” for his behaviour and Erik ten Hag said the matter is “closed” – but his antics were not forgotten by Wolves.
The DJ spinning the pre-match tracks at Molineux appeared to troll the England star with his song choices.
Blasting out from the speakers was firstly a cover version of Tequila by Terrorvision.
And afterwards they played Tequila by The Champs.
Fans found it hilarious, one said: “Wolves playing Tequila pre-match is the sort of s***housery I am very much up for.”

Another added: “Good banter to be honest.”
But Rashford had the last laugh as he scored just five minutes into the game as Wolves’ efforts to unsettle him backfired.
Man Utd supporters reacted: “Now play the music.”
A second commented: “And he’s crashed on them.”
