"The group and staff, everyone has done a great job. It's always tough at the end of such a tour, but we are really pleased with all the effort they put in," United manager Erik ten Hag said after their final pre-season match against Liverpool on 4 August.
"We came together, we worked on our game model, and now we have to fly back and we have to recover because it's tough. Especially the last days, and then such a tough game at the end, but you learn a lot about your team.
"Now we have to recover, and then go to prepare for the next game, and it is a big game."
