Man Utd:Manucho's Debut Delayed In Greece

The first appearance by Angolan football player, Manucho Goncalves, for Greece's Panathinaikos against Rangers, in Glasgow, for the 16th of final of the Uefa cup, has been postponed, after coach Jose Peseiro decided to leave him out of the team for Wednesday's match.

According to the Portuguese media on Monday, this is partly because the striker was a full time player for Angola's national team in the just-ended African Cup of Nations, which left him out of Panathinaikos's preparation sessions.Manucho, second best scorer in the CAN2008, will play for Panathinaikos until the end of the season, after he was borrowed from Manchester United that contracted him recently from Petro de Luanda, following a three weeks probation in England.
