Old Trafford will be rocking on Thursday night with Omonia Nicosia fans set to pack out the away end.
Among the 4,500-strong travelling contingent will be players and coaches from one of England's standout youth clubs, proudly representing the nation's Cypriot diaspora.
Omonia Youth Football Club – inspired by the Cypriot giants – was founded in 1994 and has become a community institution for London-based Cypriots, with over 450 players across 32 teams. Crowned as last year's FA & McDonald's 'Grassroots Club of the Year', they were born out of Omonia London and are a member of K.O.P.A – the highly-successful Cypriot league that has been running in the English capital for almost five decades.
