The incident occurred in the Stretford End, where supporters threw tennis balls onto the pitch at the 20-minute mark, symbolizing the Glazers' 2005 takeover. The protest was directed against the club's ownership structure.
The arrest followed a fan-led demonstration that disrupted the match. The action was timed to mark the 20-year anniversary of the Glazers' acquisition of the club. Officials confirmed the three individuals were detained for throwing objects onto the playing surface. No further details on the charges were immediately released.
The protest comes amid ongoing discussions about the club's ownership. Michael Carrick, the interim manager, is set to lead Manchester United in their next match against Aston Villa.
