Edinson Cavani welcomed the return of fans back to Old Trafford with a brilliant goal, but United were unable to mark the occasion with a victory.

No fans have seen a goal at Old Trafford since Scott McTominay's scored the second in United's 2020 Manchester derby win over City.
Cavani's effort was a delightful way to welcome United fans back into the ground
For a long time it looked this wonder goal was the winner, until Joe Bryan was allowed to ghost in at the far post to head home Bobby Decordova-Reid's deep cross from the right.
Ole says
"I think it might be a wake-up call because we tried to do the fancy stuff - the flicks, the extraordinary things, the things that pleased the fans.
"That's not what we're about. We should be more efficient.

Green and Gold
Despite plans for another protest against the Glazer family's ownership of Manchester United, nothing really happened aside from chants and banners inside the ground.
This would have ultimately come as welcome relief to the Manchester United manager.
