Man Utd 2-4 AC Milan: Amorim's Milan tear apart Carrick's Reds (full highlights)Manchester United's pre-season preparations ended in disaster as they suffered a 4-2 defeat to AC Milan at the Tarczyński Arena in Wroclaw, Poland, in a match that saw Ruben Amorim return to haunt his former club. The Reds got off to a perfect start when Harry Maguire headed home from Bruno Fernandes' corner in the 2nd minute, but the lead was short-lived as Samuel Chukwueze tapped in from Goncalo Ramos' square ball in the 37th minute. Fernandes then missed his second successive penalty of pre-season after Youri Tielemans was fouled, with Lorenzo Torriani saving the spot-kick. Patrick Dorgu restored United's lead in the 51st minute, capitalising on a defensive error from Filippo Terracciano to slot past the goalkeeper, but that was as good as it got for Michael Carrick's men. Alphadjo Cisse ghosted in unmarked at the back post to equalise in the 58th minute after Chukwueze's shot was heading wide, before Goncalo Ramos and Ruben Loftus-Cheek struck in the 68th and 72nd minutes respectively to complete the rout. The match was also a reunion with Marcus Rashford returning to a United matchday squad for the first time since his loans at Aston Villa and Barcelona, though he remained on the bench. Milan had 67.3% possession and controlled the game after the first ten minutes, with Andrey Santos impressing for United but unable to prevent the collapse. The full match highlights and all goals are available to watch, showcasing a Milan side finally clicking under Amorim after a difficult pre-season that included a 3-0 loss to Chelsea.
