Manchester United vs. Bournemouth Abandoned After Old Trafford Evacuated

Manchester United's season-ending clash against Bournemouth was abandoned on Sunday because of a security issue.

The Times' Henry Winter confirmed parts of the Stretford End and Sir Alex Ferguson Stand had to be evacuated, and ESPN FC's Arindam Rej provided a look at the half-empty Theatre of Dreams:

The Telegraph's Mark Ogden also reported police were en route to inspect a "suspect package in the north-west corner" of Old Trafford.
