Mexican international star striker Javier Hernandez won’t dress for Manchester United in its UEFA Champions League match with Basel (Switzerland) on Tuesday.
Chicharito will be joined on the sidelines by England standout striker Wayne Rooney, who incurred an injury in United’s 1-1 English Premier League draw with Stoke City on Saturday. Hernandez also was injured in the game — for the second week in a row.
Hernandez, who was forced out of United’s 4-1 romp over Chelsea with a bruised shin last week, went to the sidelines in the 11th minute. Ferguson, who did not have extensive comments about the injury after the match, bolted out of the dugout, claiming that Jonathan Woodgate’s challenge on the Mexican standout was a penalty kick in the third minute. Hernandez was replaced by veteran striker Michael Owen with what some media termed “a dead leg.” Ferguson reportedly said it was not a dead leg.
