United in Saudi Arabia

After the Reading match yesterday United flew out to Saudi Arabia to play Al Hilal Club in Sami Al-Jaber's testimonial match. United have taken a strong squad out, i dont know who has flown out but im not expecting players such as Rooney and Ronaldo to play a part in the match but if they do i cant see them playing most of the match.
United are apparently being paid one million pounds in television fee's.

Sir Alex had this to say to manutd.com
"This is a great chance for the players to escape the British winter for a few days, while keeping up their fitness levels and taking part in Monday's match. I hope we come back refreshed and ready to continue the challenge for honours."

The match kicks off 16:45GMT and i will be running the live score here
