• Manchester United clinched their first pre-season victory over Rangers

  • New signing Leny Yoro made an impressive debut since joining on Thursday

Manchester United struck twice as they clinched their first pre-season victory with a 2-0 win over Rangers at Murrayfield on Saturday.

Amad Diallo and academy product Joe Hugill got on the scoresheet with impressive strikes as Rangers failed to respond, but it was the performance rather than the score that left Erik ten Hag and his coaching staff happy.

The Dutchman took his squad north of the border for their final friendly before they depart for the summer tour of the United states and celebrated a much-improved performance.

The United boss had previously fumed after his side were beaten in their first friendly ahead of the new season by Norwegian side Rosenborg and was boosted by the arrival of new signing Leny Yoro and Jadon Sancho’s return.

Both were named in the starting side for the Scotland spectacle with Yoro looking surprisingly settled despite a whirlwind 48 hours since he completed his £52m transfer from Lille on Thursday.
