Watch: Van Persie's tap-in draws Old Trafford ovation

The Old Trafford faithful gave Fenerbahce's Robin van Persie a standing ovation after the Dutchman notched a consolation goal Thursday in Europa League action.

Van Persie's marker was a mere dent in a 4-1 score in favour of Manchester United, but it provided a moment of reflection for both the player and the fans.

The 33-year-old played for the Red Devils between 2012 and 2015, helping them win the Premier League title in Sir Alex Ferguson's last season in charge.
