Manchester United Under 21s drew 3-3 with Salford City as they returned to pre-season action on Monday.
Seven weeks on from their Under 21 Premier League triumph, United's youth side took on the club part-owned by Gary and Phil Neville, Paul Scholes, Ryan Giggs and Nicky Butt - who was the only member of the Class of 92 in attendance at Moor Lane.
Giggs left for the senior side's tour of the USA on Monday in his role as Louis van Gaal's assistant, while Scholes and Gary are enjoying a break following a busy season of punditry. Younger brother Phil, meanwhile, has moved to Spain after taking up a coaching post at La Liga side Valencia.

Ashley Fletcher opened the scoring for United from the penalty spot after eight minutes, having been brought down himself by Salford captain Chris Lynch, and James Weir fired home to double their lead before the break.
Josh Harrop then made it three with a fine curling effort just after the interval but former Red Devil Danny Webber pulled a goal back for Salford then Matt Chadwick made it 3-2.
United's youth side tried to hold on for the lead, but Sam Madeley struck to level the scores with just a couple of minutes to spare.
Warren Joyce's side next face Rochdale in the Lancashire Senior Cup semi-final on Saturday.
