A luxury friendly for Stefano Pioli’s Fiorentina, who face Manchester United at Old Trafford. A challenging test for the Viola with the former Milan coach choosing the starters.
Heavy attack with Gudmundsson behind Kean and Dzeko, and Sohm immediately launched in midfield alongside Fagioli.
Exciting first half in Manchester in the clash between United and Fiorentina. However, problems for Pietro Comuzzo, also a market man in Milan’s orbit. The defender requested a substitution, probably due to muscle problems, shortly after the half-hour mark.
Lightning start at Old Trafford: Sohm immediately opens the scoring, legitimizing Fiorentina’s initial superiority.
Corner kick scheme and Sohm places it in the corner with a volley. A great goal for the former Parma player.
United’s equalizer also comes from a corner action: De Gea falls, Yoro jumps, and Gosens, probably pushed by the English defender, deposits it into his own net.
MANCHESTER UNITED (3-4-2-1): Bayindir; Yoro, Maguire, Heaven; Diallo, Casemiro, Fernandes, Dorgu; Mount, Mbeumo; Cunha. Coach: Amorim
FIORENTINA (3-4-2-1): De Gea; Comuzzo, Pongracic, Ranieri; Dodò, Fagioli, Sohm, Gosens; Gudmundsson; Dzeko, Kean. Coach: Pioli
