Manchester United are off to a fine start to their pre-season preparations. Erik ten Hag's man were dominant throughout their friendly clash against Liverpool in Bangkok on Tuesday with Jadon Sancho, Fred, Anthony Martial and Facundo Pellistri among the goals.
Sancho opened the scoring just 13 minutes into the match, pouncing on a bad clearance to fire beyond Alisson. Fred then doubled his team's lead after 30 minutes with a sublime chip, while Martial made it 3-0 just three minutes later.
Facundo Pellistri added a fourth for the Red Devils during the second half, as both teams made a number of changes, but David de Gea did give Ten Hag an injury scare when being forced off with a knock.

Sancho played a key role in the build up to the game's first goal as he carried the ball to the outside of the box before cutting back to Martial.
The ball then made its way to the other wing before being played into the area, where the Liverpool defence failed to deal with the danger, allowing Sancho to open the scoring.

De Gea suffers injury
Everything appeared to be going to plan for Man Utd , but first-choice keeper De Gea was unable to complete the full 90 minutes.
He picked up a knock during the second half and immediately signalled to the bench that he needed to come off.
A calf complaint appeared to be causing him trouble, with veteran shot-stopper Tom Heaton introduced in his place.
An enforced change between the sticks did little to stunt the Red Devils' momentum, though, with Pellistri sweeping home a fourth in the 76th minute.
What did Ten Hag say about the win?
"I am satisfied today. It was a team with a great sprit and we know we are just getting started," the new Man Utd boss told MUTV.
"We made some mistakes in the press, we conceded some chances, but we created a lot.
"We have to work hard to cut out the mistakes but of course we are happy.
"I know we have good players. We have started to build a team and I am happy with the first game.
"It will take a lot of time. I have seen a lot of mistakes. Liverpool played three teams, they were not at their strongest. We will not overestimate this result.
"But still, I have seen some really good things. A lot of speed and creativity up front."
