Man Utd stars hit with cheeky on-stage dig amid Marcus Rashford and Jadon Sancho nerves

Manchester United launched their new Adidas away kit in Melbourne's Federation Square, with players past and present taking to the stage.

Around 3,000 fans turned out to see United stars Marcus Rashford, Bruno Fernandes, Jadon Sancho, Luke Shaw and Scott McTominay unveil the new strip. United legends Bryan Robson and Andy Cole were also at the launch, along with former kit man Albert Morgan, the event proving a raucous affair, with fans screaming and shouting at their heroes throughout.

The stage was turned into a replica of a dressing-room, complete with kit, boots, footballs and drinks bottles, with the whole set upside down, to depict United 'down under' in Australia. The players were brought on stage individually, with each one given a big build-up and introduction by the excitable compere, Australian TV presenter and former rugby league player Beau Ryan.
