Some of the greatest players in Barcelona‘s history have taken to the Nou Camp pitch to prepare for tonight’s charity match against Manchester United.
Yes, the likes of Ronaldinho, Rivaldo, Patrick Kluivert and Edgar Davids are all set to play against a team of Man United legends tonight, with the game kicking off at 6pm.
The game is to be played over two legs, the first at Barca’s stadium and the second at Old Trafford at the beginning of September, with all proceeds going toward the Pediatric Cancer Centre in Barcelona.
And the Barca, which is being managed by Jose Mari Bakero, were put through their paces this afternoon.
Thankfully nobody is spotted cramping up or looking jaded in the warm-up, which was played at a high intensity considering some of the players are well into their 40s:

United’s line-up isn’t quite as star-studded as the one fielded by the hosts but manager Andy Ritchie can call on the likes of Wes Brown, Ji-Sung Park and Dwight Yorke.
