Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s men were back at the WACA for a session designed to aid recovery after the previous evening's 4-0 win over Leeds United. The Reds produced a confident performance at Optus Stadium to brush aside the club’s old rivals from Yorkshire, with Mason Greenwood, Marcus Rashford, Phil Jones and Anthony Martial scoring the goals.
The manager gave playing time to 23 members of his travelling squad against Marcelo Bielsa's Championship side, just like he did versus Perth Glory last weekend, by once again changing the entire team at half-time and then bringing on James Garner as a further substitute during the latter stages of the second half.
