Legends ready for battle
Manchester United's Legends are
preparing to face their Real Madrid
counterparts on Sunday at Old
Trafford.
The Red Heart United event features
a concert headlined by JLS and a
number of other family-based
activities with the ticket-office
windows open for sales and
collections all day. 55,600 tickets
have already been sold.
United trail 3-2 from the first game
at the Bernabeu last year with
goalscorers Lee Sharpe and Teddy
Sheringham again both on show.
Coach Bryan Robson has been
deprived of the services of Dion
Dublin after he picked up a
collarbone injury and Jesper
Blomqvist has also been forced to
withdraw.
Paul Scholes is likely to be a central
figure and he will come up against
Zinedine Zidane, Steve McManaman
and Luis Figo in midfield. However,
the visitors will be without Guti.
Ruud van Nistelrooy is scheduled to
appear for both teams after
representing the two clubs with
great distinction.

United: Van der Sar, van der Gouw;
Berg, Blackmore, Irwin, Johnsen,
Martin, Stam; Fortune, Robson,
Scholes, Sharpe; Cole, Sheringham,
van Nistelrooy, Yorke.

Real Madrid: Contreras, Sanchez;
Cannavaro, Helguera, Hierro, Pavon,
Salgado, Sanz; Amavisca, De la Red,
Figo, McManaman, Makelele, Zidane;
Alfonso, Butragueno, Morientes, van
Nistelrooy.

interesting how beckham is missing from both sides.... would have thought he had done enough to be included at least in unites squad. this is a one time 1st runner up for the WPOTY.
