Robbie Savage bursts with pride as son Charlie makes Manchester United debut in Champions League

Robbie Savage watched his son Charlie make his Manchester United debut while he commentated in a special and emotional moment on Wednesday night in their clash with Young Boys.

Savage admitted earlier in the night that he was 'tearing up' after his son Charlie was named amongst the substitutes for the final group game in the Champions League.

And then Ralf Rangnick gave the 18-year-old the nod as he came on for Juan Mata, thrilling his father in the commentary box for BT Sport.
