During the match, Young was seen shouting at his teammates, before an unidentified object was seen flying into his mouth. Fans speculated that it was a bird dropping that found its way in his mouth. The video went viral with Young being the butt of several jokes in the years since. However, the veteran full back has finally opened up on the subject.

“It didn’t happen!” Young told the UTD Podcast.

“I’ve said this for God knows how long. It got to a point where I thought I need to do an interview to say that this didn’t happen, but I just couldn’t be bothered. It had gone viral; it’s still going viral I think now. Even my wife and kids say a bird pooed in your mouth, but no it didn’t!”

As much as Young tries to deny the claim, the video is out there for everyone to make their minds.

And it seems that fans and teammates alike already have their minds made up.
