The opening game of the 2014-15 Premier League season featured Manchester United and Swansea at Old Trafford. While the Manchester club may have failed to produce the goods in the match, losing 1-2, they paid tribute to their fans all over the world.
The players wore shirts with names of 11 lucky mascots before kick off.
Their new £47 million-per-year shirt sponsors Chevrolet have put together a campaign called ‘What Do You #PlayFor?’ on social media outlets, which is aimed at bringing the club closer to its fans. The mascots’ names were in connection with this campaign.
