The man, who has not been named, was treated at the scene before being rushed to hospital.
He is believed to have fallen into the lower stands as Wales fans celebrated Brennan Johnson‘s 70th-minute strike to make it 3-3.
The BBC claim the fan miraculously escaped the fall with a “minor” back injury.
It comes after a fan died at Sunday’s Nations League final after falling from a stand.
The Welsh fan is expected to be discharged from hospital in the coming days.
A 4,500-strong troupe of Wales supporters travelled to Brussels to see Craig Bellamy‘s boys take on the Red Devils, who ran out 4-3 winners.
It was a nightmare start for the visitors, who found themselves THREE GOALS DOWN in just 27 minutes thanks to strikes from Romelu Lukaku, Youri Tielemans and Jeremy Doku.
They got themselves back on level terms thanks to a first-half stoppage time penalty from Harry Wilson and second-half goals from Sorba Thomas and Johnson.
But they were cruelly denied a point by an 88th-minute winner by soon-to-be free agent Kevin de Bruyne.

Bellamy was proud as punch with his troops’ display, saying: “I don’t like losing.
“I understand the game, but how you lose is more important.

“Who are you as a person? Who is your team? I see that and I’m beyond proud. We’re a good team.
“I understand results, I really do, but football means more to me than that.
“It always has done. I’d rather try something great and fail than do nothing and succeed.”
