From Nigeria comes a report of one United fan who seems to have lost the plot over this match.
After United's defeat a fan in Nigeria killed four people when he drove his minibus into a crowd of Barcelona supporters after his team lost the Champions League final, police said on Friday.
The crowd in the town of Ogbo were celebrating Barcelona's victory after Thursday's match when the bus drove into them.
A police spokeswoman said 10 people were injured and the driver was arrested.
"The driver had passed the crowd then made a U-turn and ran into them," she said.
Barcelona beat Manchester United 2-0 in what was hailed as a "dream final" between two of Europe's best clubs.
Both teams have large fan bases in Nigeria, Africa's most populous nation.

It's a shame when it goes this far, apparently a Nigerian Arsenal fan committed suicide when we beat them in the semis.
About last night, I was actually very prepared for what happened. Just going by sheer probability, we had won four out of four European finals, I just had a bad feeling we were due to lose one - but if you back off Barcelona, retreat and wait for them to run out of space or ideas there is only going to be one winner.
It may work against Blackburn's and Wigan's but...
And now I hear Vidic is being strongly linked with Barcelona to top things off.
