00:00Right then, it's going to be Manchester United to get us underway, final game of pre-season, Arsenal bearing down on the horizon, 90 minutes to get themselves another win in pre-season, we shall soon find out.
00:14It is Manchester United to get us underway with Brian Umbermo as he comes back to Altai by India, game has started, long ball downfield, flicked on by Cunha, Dorgut lurking, pressure on the ball is good, Manchester United fighting for it, eventually a hurried clearance from Fiorentina.
00:37Maybe we're seeing what full pre-season and a good understanding of Ruben Amarim's system will do for a player.
00:45Oh, this is going to be knocked in, it's come all the way through and it's smashed home and it's the new signing, Simon Soam, that's managed to get on the end of it, bypassed everybody, tucked into the bottom right-hand corner, Manchester United trail, Fiorentina by a goal to nil.
00:59Well, I think it was, well, Ruben Amarim said in America that there were a couple of things that he was going to be desperately unhappy with and if you look at that, I mean, take nothing away from the finish, it was a beautifully controlled finish into the bottom corner,
01:15but there were two players at the back post that were completely unmarked and when you've got all ten outfield players back to defend a corner, he's not going to be happy with that at all because there must have been two red shirts there that had completely gone to sleep.
01:34We've both said it, incredible footballer, pressing machine, fitness is unbelievable, here's the corner, swung in, challenge, back post goal!
01:45Referee, I think he's going to allow this to stand, all sorts going on inside the penalty area and eventually it's lasered into the top corner and I think it's Lenny Yoro that gets the final touch, we'll have to look back at the replay, the ball was lethal from Bruno Fernandes, confusion in the box, United are level.
02:04Yes, it really is a brilliant ball and there's nothing wrong with that, I mean, he's got himself up early.
02:15I'm not sure.
02:17It's either Lenny Yoro or it's the defender, it's one of those two.
02:22Maybe there probably was a little bit of leaning there by Casemiro on Goosens.
02:27Listen, we'll take it anyway, take nothing away from the ball from Bruno Fernandes, it's a great ball.
02:33We might at least have a couple of minutes given all the substitutions that we had, the referee, Sam Barrett, thinks otherwise and the second half, although it threatened a couple of goals, none actually arrived.
02:45Two goals, both coming in the first half, the opener from a corner, dropped over the top of everybody for Simon Soane to rifle home, right footed from the edge of the penalty area.
02:54Manchester United's equaliser coming again from a corner towards the back post, Lenny Yoro leaning on his opposite number, managing to do just enough to squeeze it into the back post and Robin Gersens is given the own goal eventually as he took the last touch.
03:10And it means that at full time, it's Manchester United won, Fiorentina won.
03:16He appears from the Manchester United dugout outside by India and it will be him to face the first penalty.
03:27Keen to take the penalty, he's waiting by the spot.
03:33We had no penalties at all in the summer series in the United States of America.
03:38Now, back to Old Trafford, and a winner needs to be found in the Snapdragon Cup.
03:49By Ndeer, prepares himself.
03:52Keen the taker.
04:00Tucks it home, cheeky penalty from Moise Keen.
04:03It wouldn't be a pre-season game without Bruno Fernandes' penalty, would it?
04:08Up steps, the skipper.
04:16And scores for Manchester United.
04:19And as I keep saying, I don't show they're ever in any doubt.
04:23Identical penalty, wasn't it?
04:26Just...
04:27His accuracy...
04:29Jacopo Fazzini.
04:36Up against Altai, Bayon Deer, and Stratford Ends.
04:41Playing their part in the pantomime.
04:46Smashes it home.
04:482-1.
04:49That's a great penalty.
04:51Even though Bayon Deer's gone the right way.
04:54As I always say, it's rare that goalkeepers...
04:57...dive upwards, if you like.
05:00Mateus Cunha for Manchester United.
05:05Rolls up home.
05:06That's another cheeky penalty.
05:07Entertaining, from the Brazilian.
05:15Next up.
05:16Nicolo Fortini.
05:17Oh no, I'm lying to you.
05:19I was only joking.
05:20I was wrong anyway.
05:21Neither of us were right.
05:23Here comes Sibiri.
05:24From it's home, that is a good penalty.
05:26Low, hard left.
05:28Yeah.
05:293-2.
05:30Really good disguise, and he's run up.
05:34And he just whips it into that bottom corner.
05:36Much like Bruno, but with a little bit more pace, actually.
05:44Big strides backwards.
05:52Scores for Manchester United.
05:54Strikes it straight down the middle.
05:58Hit it hard enough.
06:00Always going to be tricky.
06:01Yeah.
06:05And door.
06:16Up against outside by India.
06:20By India stretching.
06:22Can't reach it.
06:24And perfect penalties so far, Ben.
06:26Yeah.
06:27We've seen seven excellent penalties.
06:29And the reason why they're excellent is because they've all gone in.
06:32But I have to say, neither goalkeeper has gotten close to any of them.
06:38Small in frame.
06:41Big in character, Ahmad.
06:43Very popular part of this Manchester United dressing room.
06:48And his energy levels are off the chart, like Bruno.
06:53Unique run up from Ahmad, that's for certain.
06:55Oh, he dinks it.
06:56He penenkas it.
06:57I mean, that's the cheekiest of all the cheeky trousers.
07:03When you talk about bravery, when you talk about bravery, going high or going down the middle, I mean, that is outrageous.
07:10Yeah, but it's brilliant.
07:11Yeah, but it's brilliant.
07:14Parisi.
07:15Against Bayon Deere.
07:19Oh, it's a big save.
07:20I'll tie Bayon Deere.
07:21Guess it's the right way.
07:23Gets sucking on it.
07:24Keeps it out.
07:25I nearly shouted, go left, because I could see he was stepping up left-footed.
07:32And he saves it with his feet, Bayon Deere.
07:34That's what I'm saying, you pick a side as a goalkeeper, and sometimes you get lucky.
07:39Snapdragon Cup on the line.
07:42Maynou.
07:45Smashes it out.
07:46It's a laser beam of a penalty from Kobe Maynou.
07:50And the young man from Stockport seals the win in pre-season at Old Trafford.
07:56And gives the fans here something to cheer about.
07:59Manchester United have beaten Fiorentina 5-4 on penalties.
08:03Ben, that was a decent spot kick.
08:05Yeah, it was.
08:06Listen, you can tell that they've obviously been practising somewhere along the line,
08:10because not one of Manchester United's spot kicks did the goalkeeper get anywhere near.
08:17And, listen, it only takes one.
08:20And actually Bayon Deere saved it.
08:22And Kobe Maynou steps up and thrashes home the winner.
