Robin van Persie stepped up his
recovery from an ankle injury by
scoring twice for Manchester United ‘s
Under-21 side against Fulham last
night.
It took the Dutch striker just 13
minutes to break the deadlock at
Craven Cottage when he converted
Andreas Pereira ‘s through pass.
Then, 10 minutes from time, the 31-
year-old beat Magnus Norman for a
second time to secure a 4-1 win for
United.
Van Persie also hit the woodwork on
two occasions before he was replaced
in the 81st minute.
Following that outing, there have been
suggestions that the forward, who has
found the net on 10 occasions this
season, could start against West
Bromwich Albion at Old Trafford on
Saturday evening.
