Manchester United enjoyed a brilliant start to their pre-season preparations, hammering Liverpool 4-0 in their first game under Erik ten Hag at the Rajamangala National Stadium in Bangkok.
The Reds, who shipped nine goals to Liverpool in the Premier League last season, found themselves 3-0 up by half-time, courtesy of well-taken goals from Jadon Sancho, Fred and Anthony Martial. In line with pre-season tradition, Ten Hag made a raft of changes at half-time, changing his whole team except for goalkeeper David de Gea.
It meant United's second half-line up featured a cluster of fringe players and youngsters looking to impress the new manager. Liverpool, on the other hand, had a much more familiar look to them after the break, with the likes of Andy Robertson, Thiago, Fabinho and Mohamed Salah all coming off the bench.
