Carrick: A fitting and beautiful service

Manchester United club captain Michael Carrick has described the ceremony at Old Trafford to mark 60 years since the Munich Air Disaster as a "very fitting and beautiful service".

The Reds skipper joined manager Jose Mourinho in laying a wreath on stage following readings from Sir Alex Ferguson, executive vice chairman Ed Woodward and club director Michael Edelson.

Carrick spoke to MUTV after a highly emotional event and talked about how special it was for everyone concerned.

"It was very fitting, a beautiful service - powerful and emotional," he admitted.
