Eight of Manchester United's 18 attempts at goal were on target, but none managed to beat either Caoimhin Kelleher or Vítezslav Jaros.

Manchester United's pre-season tour of the US ended with a 3-0 defeat to Liverpool.

The club's two bald Dutch managers shared an embrace at the final whistle, but one was undoubtedly much happier with the evening's outcome.

While United played well for large parts of the match, they were wasteful in front of goal and made costly defensive errors.

In contrast, Liverpool was clinical and used the final third of the match to give playing time to their impressive youngsters.
