Football quiz: Recall Ferguson’s XI when Amorim faced Man Utd in 2012

On the day Ruben Amorim takes over, recall the Manchester United XI when the new manager faced the Red Devils as a player with Braga in 2012.

Amorim officially becomes United boss today after serving a notice period at Sporting Lisbon. He’s got a big job on. And, as he admits, not much time to work his magic.

The Portuguese has sampled Old Trafford before – twice as a player.

On the first occasion, he came off the bench for Benfica in 2011. A year later, in Sir Alex Ferguson’s final season, Amorim started for Braga, who took a two-goal lead but eventually succumbed to a 3-2 defeat.

One of United’s scorers is still at the club, while one of the central defenders was playing out of position. And there are a couple more names that might trip you up.

How fast can you recall that XI?
