Manchester United players and manager Jose Mourinho put aside their preparations for Sunday's Premier League game against Everton to welcome the Wild Boars football team to the club's training ground.
Twelve members of the team, aged between 11 and 16, and their coach were rescued from a cave in Chiang Rai in which they were trapped for over two weeks after it became flooded.
A three-day operation led by the Thai Navy Seals was undertaken to extract the children - a story which touched the hearts of football's vast fraternity.

It’s a pleasure to welcome the young Thai footballers who were rescued from a cave earlier this year.
