Manchester United will be without defender Rafael da Silva for Saturday's FA Cup at Southampton because of a concussion.
The Brazilian was carried off on a stretcher following a clash of heads with Marlon Harewood during a 3-2 victory over Blackpool on Tuesday.
Rafael was briefly hospitalized, but he was able to return to Manchester with his teammates after the Premier League match.
United manager Alex Ferguson says ''it's a straightforward one. He has concussion and will miss Saturday's game.''
