Man United players know tragedy puts Europa League triumph into context

This is a modal window.

Man United and Ajax shared a moment of silence in honour of all those affected by the Manchester terrorist attack.

Manchester United's team bus began to edge away from Stockholm's Friends Arena at 12:50 a.m. on Thursday morning; the sound of the engine mixed with banging on the windows and the muted sound of footballers singing in celebration of their Europa League final victory.

A steward told a bystander that under no circumstances should a photograph be taken of the vehicle, which had been camouflaged in red, white and black and featured the Manchester United badge with "Going Holm" written on the front, so as not to attract attention.
