United's hard-pressed typhosis was stabbed by a taxi driver in Paris

The 44-year-old was with three other fans, when the taxi driver denied them to sing of Unitede's dramatic 3-1 victory in the French capital, Sky News reports.

He had tried to intervene when the driver withdrew and released a large “thic” before threatening a female fan, the Periscope broadcast.

But the driver turned the knife on him and stabbed him in the chest, letting him fight for his life on a sidewalk.

The victim was soon transported to the hospital in France and had an emergency operation to remove blood from the lungs, reports.

French police have arrested a suspect in connection with the horror attack. /Periscopi/
