魚拉突

/jyː²¹ laːi̯⁵⁵ tɐt̚²/

/jyː²¹ laːi̯⁵⁵ tɐt̚²/

Borrowed from English united.
From a video dating back to 2007 when a group of Manchester United fans in Hong Kong were riding an open-top bus to celebrate their team's victory. The poor quality of the camera used and quick speech of the fans caused the slogan "united" by the fans to sound distorted, resulting in it being misheard to Cantonese viewers.

(Hong Kong Cantonese, soccer, neologism, Internet slang, humorous or derogatory) Manchester United F.C.
