Manchester United took the lead in Switzerland thanks to Cristiano Ronaldo’s opener, but the game became more difficult for Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s men when Aaron Wan-Bissaka was sent off for a reckless challenge in the 35th minute.
Young Boys then mounted a comeback in the second half, and the turnaround was complete in stoppage time when Lingard’s loose back-pass was pounced upon by Jordan Siebatcheu, who slotted home the winner for the home side.
Lingard had remained silent on social media following the defeat, but the Manchester United midfielder has now publicly voiced his thoughts on the game.
Posting on Twitter on Wednesday afternoon, Lingard said: “Last night hurt. Every time I pull on the shirt, I hope people understand what it means to me.
“I always go out wanting to do the best for the club, the team and the fans.
