Paul
Scholes played an hour of reserve football on Tuesday
and will be available for Manchester United's charity
match against Boca Juniors.
David May, Matthew Williams and Kieran Richardson
helped the Reds to a 3-1 win over Chester City at
The Deva Stadium as Scholes played for the first time
since undergoing a scan on the knee injury he sustained
against Ajax last Friday.
The England star, who was substituted after an hour,
had tests on Tuesday which ruled out the need for
surgery.
United face Argentinian side Boca Juniors at Old Trafford
on Saturday in a game in aid of children's charity
UNICEF.
David Beckham is expected to figure alongside Nicky
Butt in a five-man midfield.
Roy Keane, Juan Sebastian Veron and Ryan Giggs all
seem certain starters with Scholes poised to be named
among the substitutes.
Wes Brown is expected to start at right-back with
Laurent Blanc and Rio Ferdinand in the centre and
Mikael Silvestre on the left.
Ruud van Nistelrooy is favourite for a lone striker's
role although United manager Sir Alex Ferguson will
use most of his players during the club's final friendly
of the summer.
