Cunha 'grateful' to represent Man United and Brazil
  • Matheus Cunha has been ruled out of Manchester United's Premier League match against Everton due to a minor knock sustained in training.
  • The Brazil forward's injury and subsequent absence were inadvertently revealed after he missed a Christmas lights switch-on event in Altrincham.
