Hundreds of Manchester United fans protested against the ownership outside Old Trafford on Thursday but did not disrupt the English Premier League fixture against Liverpool, which was postponed two weeks ago due to unrest.

There was a stronger policing presence outside the stadium on Thursday after some fans managed to get inside and stormed the pitch on May 2.

Like then, there were fans setting off flares while chanting demanding the owning Glazer family sell the club after being part of the failed attempt to launch a European Super League last month.

Two arrests were made for public order offences, but police did not interfere with the protests even though large crowds are prevented by coronavirus restrictions
