Watch:  Clip Surfaces of the only time Wan-Bissaka was Dribbled this Season, Fans are Buzzing

Only one successful dribble has been made against Aaron Wan-Bissaka, the full-back of Manchester United, this season.

Renowned for his exceptional one-on-one skills, he recently outperformed the top Premier League defenders in such situations, achieving an impressive success rate of 93.8%.

His compatriot James Maddison took to Twitter to praise Wan-Bissaka, as he said:

 "AWB is ridiculously good at 1 v 1 defending. Probably the best in the world bar none. So many wingers run out of ideas when playing directly against him."

 The only player who successfully dribbled past the defender was Emmanuel Dennis, during Manchester United's 3-0 Premier League victory in December, accounting for the remaining 6.2% of his one-on-one duels this season.

But did he?

Footage has emerged of the time when Dennis knocked Wan-Bissaka’s flawless success rate down a peg and fans don’t seem to be too pleased that it counted.

 Fans reaction 

The video shows Nottingham Forest forward Dennis supposedly ‘dribbling’ past the Englishman

But it has divided opinion among fans of whether it should have counted.

Many reactions were outraged that the dribble in question was even registered as successful, as Wan-Bissaka can be seen marshalling him away from United’s half before Dennis lays it off to another Forest player.

At first, Wan-Bissaka loses out the ground duel through a misplaced touch but makes up for his mistake by busting a gut to recover.

One fan said: “Imagine this being the only time you’ve been dribbled past in the whole season. AWB is clear.”

“People’s definition of dribbled past is very funny to me,” one added, with another fan saying:”

Another fan took a dig at Virgil van Dijk, who finished the 2018/19 season without being dribbled past, after viewing the footage.

“If that counts as a dribble we need to revisit that van Dijk season because this is not being dribbled past, never in a million years”

Another agreed: “If this is what dribbled past looks like that Van Dijk stat a couple years back is MADDD”
