Pictures were also shown of the Pretty Woman star alongside Marcus Rashford and Erik ten Hag, who even presented her with a personalised shirt.
Explaining how she became a football fan, Roberts added: “I have three children.
“When they were really little and started playing soccer, started watching it on TV, and I didn’t ever realise how exciting it was to watch it on television.
“We just got so it it and somehow just Manchester United became our, our team, the motor family team, our team. And we became sort of possessed.”
