Manchester United’s players were seemingly entertained by a pitch invasion at Ewood Park after their winner against Blackburn Rovers.

After Zlatan Ibrahimovic scored United’s second goal in a 1-2 win, some of their travelling supporters spilled onto the pitch to join the celebrations.

Full-back Matteo Darmian shared a photo of the moment and joked: “Fans played with us today!”

Ashley Young had helped to escort a young fan back to the United supporters before he was whisked away by a steward.

Young said his “fatherly instincts” had taken over.

My fatherly instincts took over, saw him fall over flat on his back, had to help him back to the fans https://t.co/OpaP1v4xWf
