A handful of Manchester United fans were waiting outside the Old Trafford directors' box entrance in the Munich tunnel 90 minutes after full-time on Sunday.

The likelihood is the club's dignitaries exited via the Stretford End tunnel. A car pulls up as close as possible to its jaws to chaperone Sir Alex Ferguson to and from home games.

Erik ten Hag is happier to run the gauntlet and walk a minute or so to the car park. He will often linger, whatever the weather, to sign autographs and pose for selfies as journalists are filing past.

After we had filed our copy on Sunday, the tunnel exit was sparse. The rain will have been a deterrent but neither players nor supporters will have been in the mood to mix.
