United luckily forced a penalty shootout, coming out on top to book their place in the final after Rasmus Hojlund’s spot kick clinched a narrow victory.
Straight after Hojlund’s penalty hit the back of the net, Antony turned to the Coventry players and cupped his ears to antagonise the Championship side.
Antony was immediately criticised for his actions as former Coventry star Clinton Morrison told the BBC: ‘He needs to worry about his own job instead of Coventry.
‘Some of his performances this season shows he could be playing in the Championship.’
