ANTHONY MARTIAL, JESSE LINGUARD, ANDER HERRERA AND VICTOR LINDELOF GIST WITH GBENGA

Martial serves notice of his enduring class

Anthony Martial endured a difficult second season at United, managing just eight goals, having plundered 17 in his debut campaign following his £36million move from Monaco. Jose Mourinho called him out publicly on a couple of occasions over a perceived lack of focus throughout the season. But here, the France forward was unplayable, dancing past two players with an outstanding piece of individual skill, before squaring for Jesse Lingard to score from close-range.

Lingard continues impressive tour form

Jesse Lingard is player who divides opinion, many feeling the brash young winger is not worthy of pulling on the United shirt. That flak intensified when he signed a new deal with United worth £100,000-a-week, but here, as he has done throughout United's US tour, Lingard impressed, going close to scoring a couple of times, before slotting in the opener following good work from Anthony Martial. Mourinho has put his faith in Lingard, who seems intent on repaying it.

Herrera injury a blow to United

Ander Herrera has emerged as a key man for Jose Mourinho, his industry, tenacity and passing range making him an automatic pick, with the midfielder set to earn a new deal to reward the progress he has made. So the sight of him walking off with what looked like a hip injury, just five minutes after the restart, is a huge cause for concern for Mourinho, who must hope the Spaniard will be fit for the European Super Cup against Real on August 8 in Skopje.

Lindelof's struggles continue

Victor Lindelof arrived from Benfica in a £30m deal this summer with a reputation as one of the most promising centre-backs in Europe. United tried to buy him in January, but had to wait until the summer to prise him from Benfica. So far, however, Lindelof has looked vulnerable on tour, making a couple of mistakes late on which led to two goals in United's 5-2 win over LA Galaxy, and here, taking out Theo Hernandez to concede a penalty from which Casemiro scored. On the evidence of his performances on tour so far, Lindelof is by no means first-choice to partner Eric Bailly in central defence.

United and Real fail to fill the Levi's Stadium

Three years ago, when United and Real faced each other in the Michigan Stadium, also known as 'The Big House', 109,318 fans packed into the cavernous area. It was a different story here at the 67,500 capacity Levi's Stadium, with great swathes of empty red seats all around the venue, which hosted the Superbowl back in January. Exorbitant ticket prices for the pre-season friendly have been cited for the game between arguably the two biggest clubs in the world not being a sell-out.
