Thousands of fans came to watch the Reds take part in an open training session at the Red Bull Arena on Tuesday evening. Earlier, Michael Owen and All-Stars striker Thierry Henry switched on lights to promote the game at the Empire State Building, while Wayne Rooney and Javier Hernandez appeared at an event in Nike Town in Manhattan.
Hernandez joined up with his colleagues on tour on Monday and he accompanied Sir Alex and Rooney at a United press conference at Manhattan's 'MLS Hub'. The All-Stars held their own conference, attended by David Beckham and Henry, at the same venue.
Ryan Giggs, Nemanja Vidic and Phil Jones were among a group of United players and officials who then went to Gracie Mansion, the residence of New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg, for a photo opportunity and a signed shirt presentation.
And in the evening, club partners Hublot hosted a glittering event at the Cipriani on Wall Street, which included a gala dinner, a fashion show featuring some of United's players and a charity auction raising thousands of pounds for the MU Foundation.
To see video clips and read more about the trip, check out Nick Coppack and Gemma Thompson's rolling tour blog, Today in New Jersey.
