Some people claim Manchester United brought their third-string team to South Africa.

Some people claim Manchester United brought their third-string team to South Africa.

That is not true.

They were all regular Manchester United players, except for Daniele de Rossi and Ben Foster.

The only players who were missing were those who had played in the World Cup. The majority of the squad were first-team players and are still here for this year's Vodacom Challenge.

People should stop downplaying Kaizer Chiefs' success against United because the team they beat had top United players. Only four or five regulars were missing.
