Manchester United perpetuated their unbeaten start to life under incipient boss Louis van Gaal, beating Inter Milan 5-3 on penalties in Washington DC after the game culminated 0-0.
United converted all of their kicks in the shoot-out at FedEx Field, Darren Fletcher slamming home the triumpher after Marco Andreolli had hit the crossbar.
Having beaten Roma last week, United have one foot in the final of the International Champions Cup, where they could face Manchester City.
United’s incipient signing Luke Shaw, who van Gaal had described as unfit on the eve of the game, came on to play wing-back for the second a moiety, while Wilfried Zaha, who showed plenty of promise on his first appearance of the tour, was introduced to play up front.
Former United stalwart Nemanja Vidic was in the Inter line-up and made a key challenge on Zaha afore he was superseded with 18 minutes left.
Van Gaal’s men were sporting their incipient blue kit for the first time but, albeit they passed the ball around nicely afore the break, they struggled to engender clear-cut chances.
