English side, Manchester United continued their impressive tour record with a 3-1 victory over European champions, FC Barcelona. Goals from Wayne Rooney, Jesse Lingard and Adner Januzaj ensured United’s victory while Rafinha reduced the deficit with a decent volley.
David de Gea made his first appearance of the tour after overcoming a back injury, but there was no sign of Angel di Maria, who looks to be moving closer to a switch to Paris St Germain.
Rooney ended an eight-match goalless run by heading in Ashley Young’s first-half corner at the Levi’s Stadium, home of the San Francisco 49ers, in Santa Clara, California.
Shortly after making 11 substitutions, United doubled their lead in the International Champions Cup match thanks to Jesse Lingard’s shot from inside the box. Rafinha’s late volley gave Barca a glimmer of hope, but Adnan Januzaj hit back instantly to give Louis van Gaal his third win of the club’s pre-season tour of the United States.
