Manchester United players and wives plus wags OUT in full force
Manchester United raised £210,000 for charity at the club's 15th annual UNICEF Gala Dinner on Tuesday evening.
On a night when the focus was on events in Madrid and London, Louis van Gaal and his players gathered at Old Trafford to raise money for the world's leading children's organisation.
Many of United's players attended the event with their partners and posed for pictures outside the ground beforehand.

Hosted by sports presenter Mike Bushell, the black-tie event was also attended by celebrities including Strictly Come Dancing star Robin Windsor, Countdown’s Rachel Riley (who is a United fan) and Emmerdale actor Chris Bisson. While Indie rock band The Enemy headlined the function.
Guests were able to bid on prizes during an auction, take part in a raffle and other fundraising games throughout the evening.
Money raised from the event will help fund UNICEF’s work protecting vulnerable children in Vietnam from abuse, neglect and exploitation.
Van Gaal said: ‘It does not surprise me that Manchester United is part of such a significant charity partnership and one that has impacted on the lives of so many children throughout the world.
