Manchester United fans vote man of the match v Barcelona
The fans of Manchester United have selected the player of the match from their team’s exciting 2-2 draw with Barcelona last night.
Despite falling behind initially, United took the lead and eventually secured a point in a captivating game that saw them unlucky not to win.
Towards the end, the team had to fight hard to hold on for the draw. Marcus Rashford scored United’s opening goal, while Jules Kounde inadvertently turned the ball into his own net.
