This Saturday, Manchester United defeated Tottenham 2-0, securing their fourth consecutive win in the English Premier League. The good run has excited fans, and one of them ended up going viral on social media because of an unusual promise.
The Briton Frank Ilett hasn't cut his hair since 2024. The fan promised he would only get a haircut when United achieved a streak of five consecutive victories. Now, the milestone could be reached as soon as this Tuesday, if the team beats West Ham, which would bring the challenge to an end.
Since starting the challenge, the Englishman has been sharing his journey on social media, gaining almost a million followers on Instagram.
“This is the first time there have been four consecutive wins since I started this challenge,” said the fan in a video posted online.
