August 9th, 2007 . posted by admin
It was a night of two friendly fixtures for Man Utd with a split squad as they completed the last pre-season games before facing Reading this sunday.
Man Utd beat Dunfermline 4-0 with the suprise inclusion of Paul Scholes who played the full 90 minutes,Owen Hargreaves is unlikely to start on Sunday after playing 65 minutes and then having an ice pack applied to the knee which has been afflicted with tendinitis.
But coach Mike Phelan, who took charge of the team at East End Park, held out some hope that Hargreaves’ big moment is not far away: “We decided he needed more than the 45 minutes he got last week, but he is fit and healthy and ready to play.”
