Fans react to a young Red's show of courage
Manchester United fans on YouTube have been paying tribute to an inspirational supporter called Zac, who was recently surprised by Rasmus Hojlund at Old Trafford.
The courageous young Reds fan has been busy raising money for epilepsy, after he was diagnosed with the condition back in 2020.
Showing a great deal of dedication, Zac set himself a challenge to run at least a mile a day every day for a whole year and, impressively, totalled 830 miles! The 13-year-old United supporter raised over £73,000 for Young Epilepsy and St Piers.

Zac's efforts didn't go unnoticed and the BBC's The One Show recently surprised him with his very own ‘One Big Thank You’.
