The Europa League final between Villarreal and Man Utd ended 1-1 and went to a penalty shootout. The 22nd penalty of the shootout saw David de Gea hit a tame effort into the hands of the Villarreal keeper.
The penalty cost Man Utd the final and led to De Gea being mocked a great deal on Twitter. His partner, Edurne, also became trending topic on Twitter.
The singer was far from happy with this unwanted attention and said she had been on the receiving of some sexist comments in amongst the comments slamming De Gea.
"Once again, today is proof that we still have a lot to do in society to fight against sexism," Edurne wrote on Twitter. Her tweet received 16,000 likes and more than 2,000 retweets.
