The career of former Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson has reportedly been recreated in a Super Mario-style video game by a YouTube user.
According to the Daily Star, Anton Alfy has animated the Scot's United career from 1986 to 2013, when he finally retired from the game in a short clip.
The report further said that the clip starts with dark and stormy weather showing Ferguson's early struggles and the lack of trophies, after which the viewer can see his career rapidly heading into sunshine as he starts winning his haul.
According to the report, the video also shows Ferguson jumping on the heads of rival managers including Jose Mourinho, Arsene Wenger and Rafael Benitez along the way.
The report further said that United fans may also hope to see a sequel of the game starring David Moyes, who replaced Ferguson as manager, do the rounds in a few years' time.
