Manchester United fans love it
Casemiro delighted fans after United's victory over Everton by offering his shirt to a fan who invaded the pitch.
United won the game with two first-half penalties from Bruno Fernandes and Marcus Rashford.
Both penalties were won by Alejandro Garnacho, although the first one did cause some controversy as Garnacho began to feign injury before celebrating the penalty in the net.
There was no doubt about the second goal, with the young Argentinian leaping over the Everton defense only to be caught by a clumsy tackle from Ben Godfrey.
Their three points are crucial for United's bid to finish in the top four, leaving them eight points behind Aston Villa who face Tottenham Hotspur today.
Casemiro gives gifts to young fans
After the final whistle, Casemiro walked around to express his gratitude to the Old Trafford fans, and one fan ran onto the pitch to chat with the midfielder and try his luck.
As security chased him and eventually caught him, the 32-year-old tried to keep the peace and offered his jersey to the young fan, who was applauded by those still in the ground.
Of course, it's worth noting that running onto the pitch to try to grab a jersey may not be the best option, and in fact, running on the pitch isn't usually the smartest idea either.

Casemiro's performance left a lot to be desired
Unfortunately, the Brazilian's performance on Saturday wasn't much of an improvement on last week's display at Manchester City.
Like any 32-year-old football player, he's not quite at his peak level yet, but his decline from last season is significant (and not in a good way).
Against Everton at the Etihad Stadium last week, he looked leggy, almost as if he was stuck in the mud at times, and once again failed to thrill the world.
Reports suggest Casemiro is one of the players Sir Jim Ratcliffe believes needs to leave in the summer as United prepare to overhaul their squad again.
Clubs in Saudi Arabia have already expressed their interest and after rejecting interest from the Middle East at the start of the season, United are likely to welcome any bids again, with the Saudi side likely to be the only ones truly willing to match his reported £350,000-a-game price. team.
