United's mistaken identity

Manchester United’s identical Brazilian twins Rafael and Fabio Da Silva confused the referee during Tuesday’s Carling Cup win at Barnsley to such an extent that he booked the wrong one! In the second-half of United's 2-0 triumph, the referee Chris Foy booked Fabio for a foul on substitute Jamal Campbell-Ryce when it was actually Rafael who had committed the offence. United are now in discussions with the FA over the matter and are confident of overturning it. In the whistleman’s defence, United manager Sir Alex Ferguson has admitted that he too is unable to tell the difference between the 19-year-old brothers!
