00:25The world-famous Camp Nou in Barcelona.
00:30A stadium fit for the grandest of occasions.
00:34Well, they call this a friendly, but the crowd clearly doesn't think so.
00:38Oh, in actual fact, the way.
00:40I'm sitting here, Peter, thinking,
00:41is it possible for these two to meet under friendly circumstances?
00:46This exhibition match is likely to exhibit the same old rivalry.
00:51To me, it also has the same feel to it,
00:53and I'm pretty sure we can look forward to what would...
00:57Martial!
01:00It's hardly a surprise, is it?
01:02That's what we're here for,
01:03a player with this wonderful knack of being able to show up
01:07and deliver at important times.
01:09Yet, yet another example.
01:15Manchester United are really pouncing on any straight passes in midfield.
01:18We're talking seconds from interception to the back of the net.
01:22But to counter, it's up in heaven.
01:44Liverpool didn't expect this, that's for sure.
01:47What can they do now?
01:52Gomez.
01:53Back to the keeper, and go again.
01:56Van Dijk.
01:58Fijnaldum.
02:00Robertson.
02:02Van Dijk.
02:04And back to base.
02:07Gomez.
02:09Jordan Henderson.
02:11Now it's lost...信ήσiger...
02:12Fijnaldum.
02:14And yuk Jest Mark
02:14Lund. And he has been fouled
02:16there. Lingard. Roll容 Organisation.
02:22try to jump
02:22out at... Oh,
02:24good interception. Jordan Henderson.
02:28and here's Mohamed Salah
02:30Mohamed Salah
02:32he's good for it
02:35oh he did the hard part right
02:37but fluffed the finish
02:38well there are a few pockets of space
02:40that are being exploited
02:42and they need filling
02:43and fast
03:01Christians were asked
03:02and he's given the answers
03:06Jordan Henderson
03:08just to point out Peter
03:09that the fullbacks are quite high
03:11and what do they try to achieve
03:12well it's obviously a move to push
03:14the opposition wide men back
03:16and give them more to think about
03:22and here's Mohamed Salah
03:25and it's Salah
03:28going for goal
03:30oh that is rather wayward
03:32well it was hit with great power Peter
03:35but sadly not great precision
03:43and it's Martial
03:45doesn't get the pass he's looking for
03:50and Dyck
03:55Jordan Henderson
03:58Manchester United
03:59scored early of course
04:01and it's 1-0
04:05Fijnaldum
04:08Robertson
04:09plays it forward
04:12Fijnaldum
04:13Jordan Henderson
04:15Mane
04:16it's on a plate
04:18good take and he's had a look
04:24now it's Martial
04:28Juan Bissaka
04:29going through
04:30Juan Bissaka
04:32drives forward with purpose
04:34Van Dijk out
04:36muscles him
04:37he wasn't very far from making something happen
04:41by himself
04:41lovely to see
04:44Mane
04:48Mane
04:50Rashford
04:53and it's Mane
04:55Firmino
04:57it's Salah
04:59oh denied
05:01brilliantly
05:02Mohamed Salah
05:03really must have felt he had the measure of the keeper
05:06but Bino
05:07definitely fell there
05:26I was expecting him to play it in until I saw his run-up
05:33and Dyck
05:37Jordan Henderson
05:38out to the right
05:41outside to the two casual in possession
05:46now it's Martial
05:49Rashford

06:02and it's a throw
06:09and it's Salah
06:12now it's Henderson
06:14all's loose
06:15who's getting there
06:16Lindelof

06:20all or nothing commitments
06:21and he came up drums
06:26Jordan Henderson
06:30Martial
06:31provided out that
06:34diving head out

06:49spectacular header
06:50he really flog himself at that
06:53you know it takes a lot of courage
06:54to do that
06:55and throw yourself at the ball
06:56knowing you can catch a beat in the head
06:58against him
07:25Manchester United take a two-goal lead
07:28and things should be comfortable
07:30from here on in
07:31well that second goal has given them
07:33so much more command and confidence
07:35now and they should be able to take it on from here
07:37and either add to their lead
07:39or close it out
07:40surely they'll manage one or the other
07:44he's through the middle
07:45he'll hit it
07:50he's pulled off a fine save
07:52Rashford is very sporting here
07:55to acknowledge the quality of the save
07:57a lovely little footballing moment
08:00oh well defended
08:02that had to be done
08:05defending was strong and firm
08:08no foul says the referee
08:11Mane
08:13Mane goes looking
08:19Shaw drives it forward
08:23and he's made sure that that won't get through
08:27Robertson
08:32and it's put a stop to that
08:36and it's Salah
08:38Firmino
08:39De Gea deals with it effortlessly
08:43Bruno Fernandes
08:52Alexander Arnold
08:57Mohamed Salah
08:59Fijnaldum
09:07Fabinho
09:11Henderson has got himself a free kick
09:29and it's Henderson
09:31Henderson
09:38Now it's Martial
09:41Martial proving impossible to wrestle off the ball
09:44He's got away
09:46Martial delivers
09:50And the whistle goes for half time
09:52Any strong opinions on the first half?
09:54Well it's looking pretty straightforward Peter
09:56They've got themselves into a very good position
09:59So why do they come here when they can repeat their first half success
10:03With another show of strength
10:06Manchester United ahead 2-0
10:08And they are looking good
10:11And we're already back underway here
10:15So both teams emerge the same as they were before the break
10:25Fijnaldum
10:31Now it's Mohamed Salah
10:33Now it's Roberto Firmino
10:37Fijnaldum
10:39Robertson
10:42And it's played forward
10:45It's a goal kick
10:53Rashford
10:55Done very well to intervene
10:59Robertson
11:01That'll be a throw-in
11:12Alexander Arnold
11:13Jordan Henderson
11:17Fijnaldum
11:19Robertson
11:22What a throw-in
11:28Manchester United really are enduring a frustrating spell
11:32When it comes to trying to move the ball around the midfield
11:34They lack the sharpness and urgency
11:36Shaw
11:37Brings the ball forward
11:40Played into them
11:41Gets up to Henitz
11:44And oh he's got that completely wrong
11:57Shaw
11:58Cuts it out
12:01Just brushed off the ball there
12:04And it's Mane
12:05Mohamed Salah
12:08Mohamed Salah
12:14Bruno Fernandes
12:16It's a decent ball
12:25Manchester United
12:27With this handy looking 2-0 lead
12:29Goes for goal
12:32Yes
12:34And they are cruising away
12:41Well I think there's a few trying to claim offside
12:44But he looks to have been on
12:45Yeah
12:46He was on
12:51Switching平
12:52I 3
12:5410
13:08Holy
13:104
13:111
13:132
13:143
13:147
13:152
13:165
13:165
13:23Manchester United take a three-goal lead
13:26and they are romping out of sight
13:32Von Dijk
13:33all the way back and they start again
13:39Jordan Henderson
13:42Alexander-Arnold
13:43he's got options out wide
13:47as a pop
13:49they've done it
13:55well from right in front of goal
13:57there was no way he was going to miss
13:59well it's pretty damning on the part
14:01of that defence Peter that he was allowed
14:03so much time and space
14:04but I think you have to give credit
14:07where it's due and it was a brilliant
14:08set up and finish
14:27so is this the start of a comeback?
14:31needless to say he was expecting a better ball than that
14:34Jim Bino
14:36well played he saw that coming
14:42and it's Rashford
14:43decent looking ball
14:58Jordan Henderson
15:03Lingard tries running with the ball at his feet
15:21and he's pulled him up for that challenge
15:39now it's Martial
15:43he's left his man
15:49Gomez
15:49very firm in standing his ground there
15:52it is a tough full contact contest
15:58Fabinho
16:00and it's Mane
16:04forward it goes
16:09Mohamed Salah
16:10gets it back
16:10big chance
16:15Bruno Fernandes
16:21he spotted the run and played him through
16:23and he's there to cut it out
16:28and it's played forward
16:35Bruno Fernandes
16:36Bruno Fernandes
16:42gets it back
16:46Henderson
16:47has a look inside the box

16:55keepers ball
17:00now it's Martial
17:02now it's Martial
17:03Bruno Fernandes

17:07but eventually thwarted without doing any harm
17:14back to the keeper
17:15and try something new
17:18Gomez
17:20Alexander-Arnold
17:23and it's Salah
17:29Firmino
17:33Martial
17:35gets the better of his man
17:41that's pretty clear
17:42it is a foul
17:46and he has shown him a yellow card
17:49the players are making their point
17:50but the ref clearly isn't interested
17:52he's waved them all the way
17:56he's got a chance from here
17:57but not the kindest angle
17:59so who is the target now
18:02he's having a look at what's available
18:05and he's there to hoof it away
18:08Rashford
18:11now it's Roberto Firmino
18:14has he picked him out
18:16has he picked him out
18:17Firmino
18:18he gets past his man
18:22whipped in
18:26Liverpool
18:27really are defending from the front
18:29they are
18:29and this type of pressing
18:30is a case of counter-attacking
18:32a counter-attack
18:33it's high octane
18:34and high pressure
18:35high fitness
18:38and he's cut it out
18:46into the last five minutes
18:55looking for space out wide
18:57it's been intercepted
18:59and that will come to nothing
19:07Jordan Henderson
19:09and it's Wijnaldum
19:19Robertson
19:21well red
19:22he's sorted that out
19:26and they've got it back
19:27as soon as they gave it away
