Law Scores His CBE
Manchester United legend Denis Law has collected his CBE at Buckingham Palace.
The Old Trafford and Scotland great said the honour was a lovely surprise''.
Law scored 237 goals during his time at United between 1962 and 1973, winning two league titles in 1965 and 1967 and the FA Cup in 1963.
He's known as one of the club's 'Holy Trinity' alongside Sir Bobby Charlton and the late George Best.
He rounded off his career by representing Scotland at the 1974 World Cup in West Germany.
The 76-year-old, who recovered from prostate cancer in 2003, will also be recognised for his charity work - having been a fundraiser for Cancer Research UK and a patron for the Meningitis Now charity.
