Manchester United release update on Burnley Carabao Cup tickets after attendance slashed

Manchester United have revealed that they have received enough tickets back to reduce their attendance to 62,000 for next week's Carabao Cup tie with Burnley.

United announced on Thursday that the match, which was previously sold out, would need to be played in front of the reduced attendance due to a lack of ambulance staff available. North West Ambulance Service will be taking industrial action next week over their pay.
