ONE of the biggest names in football will be on the scoreboard at a North ground on Sunday.
Manchester United's wom-en's team will play at Shildon, County Durham, in the first round of the Women's FA Cup.
The match is a home tie for South Durham Royals, who are already enjoying their best run in the competition with qualifying round wins at home to Crook, where the score was 4-2, and away to Kirklees, near Huddersfield, where striker Becca Adams scored the only goal.
Royals manager Colin Harker is confident of victory.
He said: "This is a great test for us to see just how far we have come. It is the first time we have reached this stage of the competition and we believe we can turn home advantage into victory and reach the second round."
The match kicks off at 2pm at Shildon Athletics Stadium, which is opposite Shildon-Sunnydale Leisure Centre.
