Full Highlights

The Red Devils were 4-1 up at half-time thanks to two well-taken goals by Wayne Rooney, a Wes Brown effort and Cristiano Ronaldo's superb free-kick.

Florent Malouda produced a stunning long-range shot that made it 2-1, while Zlatan Ibrahimovic smashed a penalty against the bar when the score was 3-1 to United.

In the second-half, when wholesale changes were made, substitute El-Hadji Diouf netted twice - a close-range header and an audacious penalty - to make the final score 4-3 in United's favour.

The object of the game was to raise money for the charity the Manchester United Foundation.

And a crowd of 74,343 - a record for a non-competitive match at Old Trafford - were treated to an evening of entertaining if light-hearted football.

At half-time, to enthusiastic applause, a suited David Beckham took a bow on the pitch he used to grace with distinction.

After seven minutes, a Paul Scholes pass split Europe's centre-backs Roberto Ayala and Marco Materazzi for Rooney to run onto and dummy Santiago Canizares before slotting the ball into the net.

Three minutes later, good work by Ryan Giggs preceded a low cross into the area where Brown slid in to net United's second.

On 22 minutes, Malouda let fly from 20 yards to beat Tomasz Kuzczak, before Ronaldo hit a devilishly swerving free-kick that left Canizares a helpless spectator.

When Brown had brought down Ibrahimovic in the area, Inter's Swedish striker took the spot-kick himself, but it rebounded off the bar to safety.

United finished the half four-up when the outstanding Ronaldo fed Ji-sung Park on the right, and the Koran midfielder's excellent first-time cross was deftly turned into the net at speed with great control.

The Europe XI showed nine second-half changes, as the likes of Liverpool trio Steven Gerrard, Jamie Carragher (both ritually treated to good-natured boos like pantomime villains) and Bolo Zenden, Portsmouth's Dejan Stefanovic and Bolton's Diouf and Stelios Giannakopolous came on. United manager Sir Alex Ferguson also rang the changes, resting several of his front-line stars ahead of the more important battles to come, but given former United hero Andrew Cole a nostalgic 45 minutes back in a United shirt.

Diouf finished a neat Europe team move with a header across Tom Heaton into the net, then deceived the young keeper with an impudently dinked penalty that bounced once before crossing the line to complete the scoring.
