Manchester United 1-0 Inter Milan: 3 Players who impressed for the Red Devils

Manchester United registered their third consecutive victory of the preseason on Saturday, beating Italian giants Inter Milan with a narrow scoreline of 1-0 at the Singapore National Stadium. However, the scoreboard doesn't tell the full story of the match.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer applied two different lineups throughout the 90 minutes of the match. Most of the starters got substituted off at the 63rd minute of the match.

The first line-up contained the likes of De Gea, Wan-Bissaka, Tuanzebe, Lindelof, Shaw, Matic, Pogba, Lingard, Martial, Rashford and James, while the likes of Romero, Dalot, Jones, Baily, Young, McTominay, Mata, Fred, Greenwood, Chong and Andreas made it to the ground in the second half. Romelu Lukaku and Chris Smalling missed the squad due to minor injuries.

Mason Greenwood's goal at the 76th minute of the match sealed the victory for the Red Devils. Manchester United had 21 shots and kept only eight on the target. On the other hand, Inter kept just one shot on goal from eight attempts.

So, without any further ado, let's take a look at those three stars who made the game for United.

#3 Tahith Chong

From the start to the end, United fans saw their favourite superstars pressing the opposition defenders high up the field. The man who successfully executed the job for the team was none other than Tahith Chong.

Solskjaer brought Chong in the 63rd minute of the match and gave him the role of a left-winger. Chong's trickery not only won some free-kicks in his own half but also demolished the Nerazzurri's defence with some eye-catching solo runs.

He made a total of 27 touches during his time on the field and seven touches inside the opposition half. He also created one superb chance. Chong's impressive performances could give him a few appearances in the upcoming season.

#2 Aaron Wan-Bissaka

Wan-Bissaka proved his class yet again on Saturday

After watching Wan-Bissaka's today's performance, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer most probably was the happiest man in the United's dressing room. Manchester United spent around £50million to secure the services of Aaron Wan-Bissaka earlier this summer.

Keeping all the negative comments regarding his transfer-fee aside, Wan-Bissaka proved his class yet again on Saturday. Ole Gunnar Solskjaer opted to start him yesterday against Inter and he put in a superb performance and earned the Man Of The Match award.

He played 63 minutes for the Red Devils and made 39 successful passes with an accuracy of 93%. He won three tackles and four duels with over 90 % success rate.

With the help of his long legs, Wan-Bissaka kept Inter's left-wing quiet for a long time. In the post-match press conference, the manager heaped praise on the English full-back by saying,

“I thought Aaron [Wan-Bissaka] was growing and growing in confidence and is getting used to his team-mates.

His performance was a good one, as were so many of his team-mates’ performances. Every one of the players today can look back on his performance and say they were happy.”

#1 Mason Greenwood

Mason Greenwood sealed the game for Manchester United

The golden boy of Manchester United, Mason Greenwood, came out as the saviour again on Saturday as the 17-year-old striker's goal made the difference between both the sides on the night.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer yet again opted to launch Mason Greenwood at the right-wing. However, he switched into a central role as the game got closer to the end.

With 75 minutes on the clock, Inter drew a foul outside the box. Ashley Young's right-footed curler was saved by Inter's goalkeeper Samir Handanović.

Greenwood grabbed the rebound and netted a cracker by sending the ball into the bottom left corner. After the match, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer heaped praise on the young striker by calling him a 'natural finisher.'

“Mason’s a natural finisher. He’s practising, of course, don’t get me wrong. He just knows where the ball is going to end up and land sometimes. You get players like this and he’s a natural goalscorer.

He’s only 17 but, then again, why not enjoy it? I know he’s enjoying himself, enjoys football and he is going to enjoy every minute he gets and he’ll get a few, to be fair.”
