Man Utd beaten by former boss Amorim's AC Milan in friendly finale
LONDON: Manchester United’s pre-season campaign ended with a decisive 4-2 defeat by Ruben Amorim’s AC Milan in the Polish city of Wroclaw on Saturday.
Manchester United's pre-season campaign concluded with a 4-2 loss to former boss Ruben Amorim's AC Milan in Wroclaw, Poland. Michael Carrick's team took an early two-goal lead, scored by Harry Maguire and Patrick Dorgu. However, Milan struck back with three goals from close range before Marcus Rashford scored United's fourth. The match marked Rashford's first appearance for United since returning from a loan spell with Barcelona.
Bruno Fernandes missed a penalty for the second consecutive friendly, but did provide the second-minute corner that led to Harry Maguire's goal. Milan equalized after a defensive mistake allowed Goncalo Ramos to break into the area and assist Samuel Chukwueze. United regained the lead through Dorgu's goal, but Milan equalized again when Chukwueze's shot was turned in by Alphadjo Cisse.
Rashford came on as a substitute in the 60th minute, and former Chelsea midfielder Loftus-Cheek scored Milan's fourth goal three minutes later. Amorim was sacked as United manager in January following a 14-month tenure, with Carrick taking over and leading the club to a third-place finish.
