The fixture was played in aid of Manchester United Foundation – the club’s associated charity – raising vital funds for its work with young people in Greater Manchester, and an auction of the match-worn shirts from the game is now taking place to continue the fundraising drive.
Playing for the Legends team for the first time, Wayne Rooney provided an incredible moment in the game, as he scored a wonderful curling free-kick in the first half – bringing delight to more than 33,000 fans inside Old Trafford.
Antonio Valencia, Darren Fletcher, Dimitar Berbatov and Michael Carrick were among those to line up alongside Rooney in the starting XI, with Paul Scholes, Nicky Butt and Denis Irwin all coming off the bench, too.
