An 87-foot LED screen was used to display the match, with fans treated to a pitchside view.
The technology effectively offered a simulation of watching from the stands inside Old Trafford.
Fans on social media were left mesmerised, with one person writing: “You mean to tell me these guys weren’t physically present in the stadium? I thought that was the OT.”
Another commented: “Woah, I thought they were at the stadium.”
A third said: “Wtf? Why haven’t England got this?”
While a fourth simply wrote: “This is insane!”
Cosm Los Angeles describes itself as an “experiential hub” that offers “shared reality” experiences.
It has been likened to The Sphere in Las Vegas, an interactive entertainment venue.
