Rio Ferdinand gatecrashed an interview between Manchester United's in-house TV channel and Andre Onana after the goalkeeper produced a 97th-minute penalty save to help the Reds beat FC Copenhagen at Old Trafford on Tuesday night.

Having lost both of their opening two Champions League Group A fixtures, United secured their first win of their European campaign, edging past the Danish outfit 1-0.

Harry Maguire scored the only goal of the game, heading home Christian Eriksen's cross after 72 minutes. However, it looked as though Maguire's effort would count for very little after referee Marco Guida awarded a penalty to the visitors deep into injury time.
