Ferdinand and O'Shea fit for Inter

Share

Rio Ferdinand was limped off the track with an ankle injury during the FA cup quarter final match against Fulham on saturday. O'Shea was also reported to have a heel problem.

But they are reported to have trained this morning to face Italian side Inter Milan in the second leg of Champions League round 16.

Ferguson said: “They’ve both trained for the first time and we’re pleased about that. It was an important time after the injuries on Saturday but they're both fit and they'll play. 

“The games are coming thick and fast now and as it happened we picked up injuries with Ferdinand and O'Shea. 

“O'Shea was more precautionary but with Ferdinand's injury we had to start thinking about alternatives and that's what happens when you're playing Wednesday, Saturday, Wednesday, Saturday. 

"Once we got Saturday out of the way we had two teams, one with Ferdinand in it and one without him in it and that was on Sunday afternoon.”
