Erik ten Hag has taken his Manchester United team Down Under for a pre-season friendly with Melbourne Victory today.
The new manager got off to the best possible start with a 4-0 thumping of Liverpool earlier this week in Bangkok, with Jadon Sancho, Anthony Martial, Fred and Facundo Pellistri all scoring in the rout.
Ten Hag now takes his squad to Australia to face the A-League side, who have just signed former Red Devil forward Nani.
