Whakarāpopototia te tuhinga:  Mēnā koinei te wharekai whai wāhitanga whakamutunga, ko Rafael te wairua me te wairua o te rōpū me tana mahi whakahirahira i te wa i tohatohahia ai e te kapa o raro i te 21 o Manchester United te 1-1 ki Tottenham. Ko te kaitautoko matau o Brazil, 24, e kiia ana e whawhai ana mo tona heke mai i Old Trafford i muri i te uaua ki te whakamiharo i te kaiwhakahaere Louis van Gaal. Kua hanga e ia e iwa noa appearances tenei wā, me te i te whakakapi kore whakamahia mo te 2-1 FA Cup hinga ki a Arsenal i runga i Mane i muri i mahue i roto i te ope katoa mo te matches e rua o mua ki Sunderland ko Newcastle - ahakoa wikitoria whara. I whakamiharo a Rafael mō te kapa U21 o Manchester United ki a Tottenham i Old Trafford i te Rātū. Ko Rafael he whakakapi kaore i whakamahia i te wa o te wikitoria a United i te kapa FA Cup mo te wikitoria a Arsenal i te Mane. Ko Rafael te kaiwhakaari whetu o United i to raatau 1-1 i te Tottenham's U21s i Old Trafford. I mihi atu a Rafael ki tana hoa kapa o United a Tom Thorpe i muri i tana whiwhinga i te poitūkohu i te Turei. Engari kaore ia i whakaatu i tetahi tohu o te waikura i roto i te ahua o te whakaaturanga mahi katoa i kite ia ia hei toa karakia i Old Trafford. I te haurua tuatahi, kaore ia i rite ki tana hoa matua a Radamel Falcao, he iti noa iho te waewae he i kawea e Rafael te whare ki raro me te whaainga ahuareka. I te taha o United ki te whakatuwheratanga o Kenny McEvoy, ka aukati te kaitautoko i te panga mai i te kaitiaki o Spurs a Luke McGee, ka whakaiti i a ia i mua i te tapahi i tetahi kopere reka i runga i taua tangata mai i te 30 maero me tona waewae maui. I hinga ai tētahi whare rangatahi - ā, he whakamaharatanga tika ki ōna pūkenga whakaeke i mua i te mātakitaki o te kaiāwhina kaiwhakahaere a Ryan Giggs. Ko te kaiāwhina o te kaiako o United a Ryan Giggs (te rua ki te maui) me U21 Nicky Butt (tuatoru ki te maui) i mātakitaki i roto i nga tuunga. Ko te tukunga whakamuri o Antonio Valencia i te po o te Mane i kite i te hinganga o United i te Ipu FA. Kei te mārama a United ki ngā tono mō Rafael me te maha o ngā karapu i tōna whenua e kīa ana kei te ārahi i te whakapae. Engari kei te piki haere te pēhanga ki runga i te kaitākaro o nāianei a Antonio Valencia i muri i tana mahi kino i te tukinga 2-1 o te kapa FA Cup o te marama o te Mane ki...
I takaro te kaitautoko o Brazil i te 90 meneti ki a Tottenham U21s i te Turei. Kāore a Rafael i whakamahia hei whakakapi i a Arsenal i te FA Cup i te Mane. Kei te tuwhera tonu a United ki ngā tono mō te kaitiaki matau e 24 tau te pakeke. I takaro hoki a Radamel Falcao i te whiringa toa 1-1 i Old Trafford.
