No fans are allowed in stadiums but Manchester United’s Europa League clash away to Granada was briefly halted after a naked man made his way onto the pitch.

The mystery man got onto the Estadio Municipal Nuevo Los Carmenes turf in the sixth minute of the match.

It’s not clear what the mystery man’s motives were but police acted quickly as they apprehended him and escorted him off the pitch.

This is one of the biggest matches in Granada’s history but it’s the Red Devils who seemingly reacted better to the unexpected visitor as they currently lead 1-0.

Marcus Rashford broke the deadlock on 31 minutes, poking home as he latched onto Victor Lindelof’s long ball.
