Paul Scholes will miss the first of United's Champions League Group games after being sent off in the UEFA Super Cup Final defeat to Zenit St Petersburg.

Having already been shown a yellow card for a reckless tackle in the first half, the United midfielder was shown a second yellow card for punching the ball into the net just three minutes from the end of the 2-1 defeat in Monaco on Friday night.

Scholes will now therefore serve a one game ban and so will sit out United's first Champions League tie against Villarreal at Old Trafford.
