Fellaini was jumping up to header the ball past Real keeper Keylor Navas in the second half when he fell to the ground following the collision.

And Twitter users wasted no time in drawing the comparisons once United's medics had bandaged up the Belgian.

Several likened Fellaini to comedy genius Ferrell's character from the hit 2008 basketball comedy.

Others said he bore a strong resemblance to American icon McEnroe from his days with longer hair.

Then the seven-time Major winner had his unruly curls sprouting from his head band.

One slightly less common shout was for Sylvester Stallone's Rambo character from the cult classic film franchise.

Fellaini could not save Jose Mourinho's side from defeat to Real Madrid in Skopje.

Romelu Lukuka's second-half strike was not enough to cancel out goals from Casemiro and Isco either side of half-time.
