Giggs followed the example, handing 20-year-old Welshman Tom Lawrence a chance in addition to Wilson, the Biddulph-born forward who has earned rave reviews for the reserve team this season.

Cameo is a small part in a film/movie or play for a famous actor.

1. I just saw her on HBO last night. She had a cameo role in an action-thriller, but I forget the name of the film.

2. Victoria Beckham was offered a cameo role but had to turn it down due to scheduling conflicts with Spice Girls tour rehearsals.
