English Premier League: Van de Beek justifies himself with a goal in Manchester United’s second friendly
Manchester United continues its development with the aim of the 2023-24 season. The “Red Devils” beat Leeds (2-0) in their first pre-season friendly match and They defeated Olympique Lyonnais (1-0) in their second “polo” this summer.
Newcomer Mason Mountjust as in its inception,The beginning is played. In Ten Hag eleven “veterans” mingled (Wan-Bissaka, Varane, Lisandro Martinez, Anthony and Sancho) and beginners (Covar, Alvaro Fernandez, Mejbre, Maino and Amad Diallo).
Several things to highlight. Raphael Varane put on the bracelet for the first time Since Ten Hag took it from Maguire, Although Bruno Fernandes remains the favorite to be the next permanent captain of the “red devils”. In addition, Spaniard Alvaro Fernandez repeated as a starter for the second time on the left side.
It was necessary to wait for the second half, yes, to see the only goal of the match. Donny van de Beek scored in the 49th minute. As soon as he left the locker room, when a cross from the right was hit by Daniel Gore. Something to help him prove himself… although his future seems more distant than close at Old Trafford.
The second half also contributed to seeing Jonny Evans re-deploy to United. The former Leicester player, who was formed in the academy of the “Red Devils”, was without a team and signed a temporary contract. There was also time to see another Spaniard: Marc Jurado. Ex-Barcelona player Boan-Bissaka has been replaced in the remainder as right-back.
