Radamel Falcao and a host of
United stars are heading home
to Manchester, ready for the
Barclays Premier League season
to resume following the
international break.
The Colombian played for 67
minutes – and saw a wonderful
goal disallowed for offside – as
Jose Pekerman's side secured a
1-0 win over Canada thanks to
James Rodriguez's 75th minute
winner. The striker was the last
of the Reds to compete in a host
of friendlies and European
qualifiers.
Falcao scored in Colombia's
preceding friendly against El
Salvador and returns to United in
good form, which bodes well for
Louis van Gaal given that fellow
strikers Robin van Persie and
Wayne Rooney - albeit the latter
being suspended for two further
club matches - also hit the back
of the net for Holland and
England respectively.
Other highlights of the break
included David De Gea's clean
sheet for Spain, Darren Fletcher's
Scotland drawing with Poland
and Luke Shaw's man of the
match display for England
Under-21s.
