Europe XI Lyon trio in Lippi's squad

Three more players have been added to the all-star Europe XI team to face United in the Jubilee Charity Match at Old Trafford next month.

Olympique Lyonnais trio Eric Abidal, Gr?gory Coupet and Juninho Pernambucano have all accepted Lippi?s invitation to join his squad, which also includes David Beckham, Steven Gerrard and Jamie Carragher (he wasn't eligible to pick Arsenal or Chelsea players if anyone's wondering).

Juninho, a Brazilian World Cup winner, is one of the few non-Europeans likely to be selected by Lippi

 

I hope that Casillas is in the squad. Also, is the game on TV?

Interesting that the 'European XI' might consist of non-European players?

 

Now you mention it, that is a bit odd.

Arn't Europe good enough or something? heh.

 

Why aren't Arsenal and chelsea players aloud. I heard somewhere that it was because of their hectic schedules. Am i right

 

Something like that, think Chelsea and Arsenal are playing the day before or after it.
