Skipper set to miss Euro tie

Gary Neville was the only absentee from training as Manchester United were put through their paces ahead of tomorrow night’s Champions League clash with Dynamo Kiev at Old Trafford.

Gary Neville was the only absentee from training as Manchester United were put through their paces ahead of tomorrow night’s Champions League clash with Dynamo Kiev at Old Trafford.

The England defender made his comeback from long-term injury in a reserve game last week but, after missing out on Saturday’s draw at Arsenal, it now seems unlikely the 32-year-old United captain will figure tomorrow.

Apart from that, and long term-injuries to Mikael Silvestre, Paul Scholes, Park Ji-sung and Ben Foster, Sir Alex Ferguson set to have a full strength squad to choose from. Louis Saha could come into contention, while Owen Hargreaves should make his European debut.

Team (from): Van der Sar, Kuszczak, Brown, O’Shea, Ferdinand, Vidic, Pique, Evans, Evra, Simpson, Ronaldo, Hargreaves, Anderson, Fletcher, Eagles, Carrick, Giggs, Nani, Saha, Rooney and Tevez.
