THE Association of Former Manchester United players (AFMUP) has donated £2,000 towards the second leg of a World War One commemorative football match to be played later this year.

In December, pupils at Stretford High School ran out 3-0 winners during a first leg football match against a community team from Monchengladbach at Manchester United's former training facility, The Cliff.

The game was just one of a number of World War One activities organised courtesy of a collaboration between the school, Manchester United Foundation and Trafford Council.
