Manchester United 1-0 Inter Milan: Hits & Flops

Manchester United's unbeaten start to their pre-season stretches to three matches after a 1-0 victory over Italian giants Inter Milan.

The Red Devils dominated the match throughout as Inter Milan failed to cope with the Manchester United press. The Premier League giants, though, couldn't make use of their upper hand after some poor finishing let them down in the first half of the match.

The 63rd minute saw Ole Gunnar Solskjaer changing their entire starting XI like the previous matches. The change saw Mason Greenwood leading the attack for Manchester United.

It was Mason Greenwood once again who broke the deadlock as the teenager scored in the second consecutive match to give Manchester United the lead in the 73rd minute. A little bit of trickery saw Joao Mario fooled before the teenager took a shot through traffic to give Manchester United their well-deserved lead.

Manchester United will now face Tottenham Hotspur on the 25th of July in the International Champions Cup in China while Inter Milan will face familiar foes Juventus on the 24th of July in China.

Let's take a look at the hits and flops from this game.

Flops

#3 Samuele Longo

The vagabond striker's stay in Inter Milan looks to have finally come to an end.

It could arguably be the last time Samuele Longo will be wearing an Inter Milan shirt. The striker who joined Inter Milan in 2011 has made just one appearance for the Nerazzurri, having spent time on loan at 9 different clubs.

Antonio Conte had earlier said that each player would be given a chance to prove his worth, and Longo today potentially blew his final chance of claiming his place. The 27-year-old was not helped by the midfield as the striker on many occasions than once found himself alone in the opposition half.

#2 Dalbert Henrique

Dalbert had a torrid evening facing Wan-Bissaka

Another player who is likely to move away from San Siro by the end of the transfer season, Dalbert Henrique had a torrid time against Aaron Wan-Bissaka on the left side.

Playing as the left-wing back in Conte's 3-5-2 system, Dalbert found it difficult to get through Manchester United new signing Aaron Wan-Bissaka. The 24-year-old despite his best efforts found the Englishman a handful as the Brazilian was tackled on more than one occasion to relieve any threat to the Manchester United defence.

Dalbert also provided nothing in defence as Manchester United exploited the right-hand side of the defence with Aaron Wan-Bissaka and Daniel James ripping through them.

#1 Marcelo Brozovic

Marcelo Brozovic looked like a frustrated figure throughout the match

The Croatian looked the most frustrated figure on the pitch today. Brozovic was employed in the heart of the Inter Milan midfield in place of the new signing Stefano Sensi, who was normally used in that role for Sassuolo.

Brozovic found it hard to keep any sort of rhythm in the midfield for the Nerazzurri. The Manchester United press saw the midfielder losing the ball on numerous occasions.

The 26-year-old couldn't cope with the pace of the Manchester United game either as he gave away fouls on more than one occasion. Brozovic was lucky not to have been sent-off after dangerous tackles on more than one player while being on a yellow card.

Hits

#3 Mason Greenwood

The teenager has two goals in last two appearances for Manchester United

The 17-year-old is once again knocking on the door for getting a start after yet another impressive performance for the Red Devils. The striker came on in the 63rd minute with the game tied 0-0.

12 minutes later the teenager found himself on the scoreboard after Samir Handanovic deflected the ball onto the path of striker. The teenager fooled Joao Mario with a shimmy before shooting with his left through a host of Inter Milan players to score his second goal in as many matches.

#2 Aaron Wan-Bissaka

Wan Bissaka was a colossus for Manchester United in back.

Aaron Wan-Bissaka looks to be the biggest bit of business that Manchester United have done this season. The England U-21 international was flawless throughout the match.

The full-back made it almost impossible for anyone to go through the right, and when someone did he produced perfectly timed tackles to get the ball out of harm's way.

The 21-year-old formed an impressive combination with Daniel James as the duo ran ruckus through the Inter Milan defence. Aaron Wan-Bissaka showed glimpses of his attacking side that was normally not seen when playing for Crystal Palace.

The full-back showed trickery and awareness as bamboozled his opposition full-back on many an occasion.

#1 Paul Pogba

Despite the uncertainty over the midfielder's future, Paul Pogba looked focussed throughout the match

It isn't hard to see why Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, despite the uncertainty over the future surrounding Paul Pogba, is looking to build his side around the Frenchman. The midfielder was on song yet again as Manchester United ripped through the opposition defence.

The Frenchman was at the heart of everything positive for Manchester United today. He looked like the player who could make things happen today. If not for poor finishing by the forwards the midfielder would have had a couple of assists to his name.

The World Cup winner completely bossed the midfield today as he tricked, bullied and frustrated the Inter Milan players throughout the 63 minutes he was on the pitch. He passing was spot-on as Manchester United went on the counter on numerous occasions.

During one of the instances in the match, Pogba tried to juggle through a crowd of Inter Milan players and in another instance, he completely fooled a couple of players before forcing Handanovic into an excellent save.
