Barca are charging United fans 102 per ticket for the Nou Camp clash the most United fans have ever had to pay for a ticket outside of a major final.But the Premier League have got their own back on Barcelona by charging Spanish fans the same price for an away ticket at Old Trafford.United have confirmed they will use the extra cash generated to subsidise the costs of away tickets for their own supporters.In a statement, United criticised Barcelona for their extortionate price hike and confirmed their brilliant plan to support loyal Red Devils fans. In this instance we believe that our travelling supporters are again being subjected to increased/excessive ticket prices from the host club, the statement read.We have again taken the difficult decision to charge FC Barcelona fans for the home leg at Old Trafford the same amount that FC Barcelona are charging for the away fixture (102).We will use the additional revenue gained from this to subsidise our travelling support by paying the 27 price difference for each of our travelling supporters.Solskjaer return to the scene of his famous injury-time winning goal, but this time as Manchester United manager2

Its not the first time United have stepped in to help their fans, having also subsidised tickets for their away trip to Valencia earlier this season and against Sevilla last term.It means United fans will now only have to pay 75 for a seat at the Nou Camp, as United aim to reach the semi-finals for the first time since the 2010/2011 campaign.
