Man Utd fans fall onto pitch as advertising hoardings collapse as they celebrate goal

Manchester United fans fell onto the pitch after the hoardings collapsed as they celebrated their side's third goal against Nottingham Forest on Wednesday night.

Red Devils players ran towards the away end of the City Ground after Bruno Fernandes sealed the victory and put United very much in the driving seat of their two-legged Carabao Cup semi-final against the Tricky Trees.

The Man United players stood in front of the away end to celebrate in a group as jubilant fans leaned towards the advertising hoardings. Then, without warning, the board suddenly fell forward, with a number of supporters tumbling onto the pitch.

Fortunately, no one appeared to be hurt, as the United players quickly moved away from the fans to allow stewards and police to step in and help people to their feet.
