Both the men’s and women’s first-team squads donated to the campaign last week, while Erik ten Hag presented Foundation chief executive, John Shiels, with his 2022/23 training coat at his pre-match press conference at Carrington, in support of the initiative.
The Foundation’s matchday appeal was then met by an unbelievable response from supporters at Old Trafford, with donations made before and after the game, at points around the stadium, leading to more than 140 bags being received.
John Shiels said: “I am truly overwhelmed with the kindness and generosity shown by everyone at Manchester United to support the Foundation’s appeal.
