The 27-year old Red Devils player limped off after 25
minutes, shortly after his side had levelled the match through
Darren Fletcher’s goal.
Prior to that, the Newcastle-born man had looked lively as his
side pressed for an opener before Obafemi Martins headed his side
in front.
Absent
With Sir Alex Ferguson confirming that the former Tottenham
Hotspur man will be absent for at least two weeks, Carrick is
certain to miss the Wembley friendly on Wednesday night.
The news will come as major blow to the player’s international
hopes, with Three Lions manager Fabio Capello including him in a
squad that saw several ruthless omissions such as Aston Villa’s
Ashley Young and Portsmouth striker Peter Crouch.
As a result, Capello has called upon the services of Spurs
midfielder Jermaine Jenas, giving the former-Newcastle United
player an opportunity to stake his claim for a regular berth in the
side.
