Manchester United recently organised its fan engagement event #ILOVEUNITED in Mumbai. It was a full Manchester United experience for fans in the build-up to the match—from giveaways and photo opportunities to football challenges, interactive games and special guests—before a live screening of the Premier League match against Everton which United won eventually by 2-0. We caught up with Manchester United former players Wes Brown and Denis Irwin who were part of the event.
Q. How was your #ILOVEUNITED experience in India?
Wes Brown: It was great to win the game and to meet all the fans and have another great experience. I am glad to be back in India. We've all the food, and the sun as it's not the best time in England. And the win was a cherry on the top.
