It’s all over at the Rajamangala Stadium where Erik ten Hag’s United have made a strong start to Tour 2022, with a 4-0 victory over Liverpool. Jadon Sancho, Fred, and Anthony Martial all got on the scoresheet in the first half before Facundo Pellistri completed the scoring after the break.

The players have already been working hard on the training pitches at Carrington and more recently in Bangkok, with a view to impressing the new boss Erik ten Hag and staking a claim to be in his matchday squad when the 2022/23 Premier League campaign kicks off next month.
However, our first pre-season match represented the best opportunity yet to catch the manager’s eye, not least because it pitted his side against a strong Liverpool squad that lifted both domestic cups last term.
Ten Hag’s team rose to the challenge, soundly beating Jurgen Klopp’s men 4-0 with some wonderful finishes from Jadon Sancho, Fred, Anthony Martial, and Facundo Pellistri.
With a confidence-boosting start to pre-season and some important minutes in the legs, the Reds will now head to Australia ahead of our next match, against Melbourne Victory, on Friday.
