Dutch cop comes to rescue of 'forgotten' Man Utd star

Dutch cops came to the rescue of beaten Manchester United last night.

De Telegraaf says after defeat at Europa League opponents, Feyenoord, one United player risked missing the flight back to Manchester as he was forced to undergo a drugs test.

The player in question was having problems 'meeting the requirements' and once the test was eventually complete, found himself on his own, with the rest of the squad already boarding a private jet for home.

However, a local motorcycle cop helped the unnamed player get to the airport before take-off.
