Nani set for Man Utd start against MLS All-Stars

Portugal international Nani could continue his Manchester United comeback from a dislocated shoulder in the pre-season tour showpiece match against the MLS All-Stars. The winger played all but the last 21 minutes in the 2-1 defeat by Kansas City Wizards on Sunday.

He said: "It was good to come back and play my first game this season. Of course I still have a lot of work to do.

"When I missed the World Cup it was a very bad time. But I was thinking, 'I can't wait for the season again so I can play and score goals and feel the crowd behind me again'.

"Now I'm so happy to be back and I hope to get fit as quickly as possible because I want to play well this season."
