MANCHESTER United made it two wins out of two with a 4-1 victory over Bournemouth in the Premier League Summer Series pre-season tournament in Chicago on Wednesday.
Goals from Rasmus Hojlund, Patrick Dorgu, Amad Diallo and teenager Ethan Williams sealed an encouraging result for Ruben Amorim’s span at a rainy, windswept Soldier Field.
United took the lead after just eight minutes through Hojlund.
Dorgu curled in an inviting cross from the left flank and Denmark international teammate Hojlund timed his run and jump to perfection to glance a header past Bournemouth goalkeeper Djordje Petrovic.
Dorgu then doubled United’s lead in the 25th minute, latching on to a slim, lofted quick free-kick from Mason Mount, muscling his way into the area and sliding a cool finish beneath the advancing Petrovic.
Diallo bundled in United’s third in the 53rd minute before Amorim made nine changes with 20 minutes to go.
Substitute Williams needed just two minutes to make an impact curling a low finish into the bottom corner to put United 4-0 up.
The only blemish on United’s performance came with an 88th-minute own goal from Matthijs de Ligt.
