English football giants, Manchester United, arrived at the Durban International Airport yesterday. The Red Devils were met by hundreds of fans blowing vuvuzelas to welcome their overseas heroes. United will however be without some of their well known players such as Wayne Rooney, Christiano Ronaldo and Rio Ferdinand. Veteran players, Ryan Giggs and Paul Scholes have also made the trip to South Africa. United will take on Orlando Pirates at the Absa Stadium today, before heading to Cape Town where they will face Kaizer Chiefs at Newlands on Tuesday.
