A 'FRIENDLY' between veteran FC Barcelona and Manchester United players will raise money for victims of terrorism in both cities this coming Saturday at Old Trafford.
Ruud van Nistelrooy, Patrick Kluivert, Edwin Van der Sar, Eric Abidal, Park Ji-Sung, and Edgar Davids are expected to be playing for Man U, according to their trainer Bryan Robson.
