Football fans in Manchester United sleepover were 'freezing to death' during the night at Old Trafford and say stunt failed at Arsenal's stadium

The football fan who masterminded the Old Trafford sleepover says he and his friend ‘just got lucky’.

As revealed by Sportsmail, United were left red-faced when it emerged two pals had taken the stadium tour on Friday before hiding in toilets overnight in a desperate bid to watch the Arsenal match on Saturday.

The North London pair, who videoed their escapade, were only caught 16 minutes into the game.
