  "account": "Marcus Rashford returned to Manchester United's lineup after a 20-month absence, making his first appearance for the club in a pre-season match against AC Milan. The 28-year-old forward, who spent last season on loan at Barcelona and had previously played under AC Milan manager Ruben Amorim, returned to Michael Carrick's side for the final pre-season fixture. Rashford wore the No 9 shirt and played on the left wing, featuring as a substitute in the second half. Carrick expressed excitement about Rashford's return, stating that the player \"gives us something a little bit different in the group.\" The match resulted in a 4-2 victory for AC Milan, with Harry Maguire scoring for United and goals from Alphadjo Cisse, Goncalo Ramos, and Ruben Loftus-Cheek for Milan.",
