United without Vidić for three weeks

Manchester United FC have confirmed that centre-back Nemanja Vidić will be out of action for two to three weeks after he picked up a knee injury at AS Roma on Tuesday.

'No major damage'
The Serbian international landed awkwardly after contesting a high ball and had to be substituted just 31 minutes into the UEFA Champions League quarter-final first leg, which United went on to win 2-0. A scan on Wednesday allayed some of the Old Trafford club's fears, with a spokesman saying: "There is no major damage to the left knee." Vidić will, however, miss the return match against the Italian side on 9 April as well as the Premier League leaders' domestic games against Middlesbrough FC and Arsenal FC.
