Manchester United’s Pre-Season Wrap-Up…

In their final pre-season dance, Manchester United boogied to a 1-1 draw with Fiorentina. Despite the Italians shaking their maracas first, a Robin Gosens own goal evened the score. United hit a high note, winning the Snapdragon Cup in a penalty shootout. Now the Red Devils trumpet the Premier League’s start against Arsenal this Sunday. Ruben Amorim’s squad has spun through five funky friendlies, and each player tried to outdo their Spotify playlist with minutes on the pitch.

Andre Onana’s participation was like a ninja in a library—silent and unseen. Altay Bayindir wore out 315 minutes, while Tom Heaton moonwalked through 135 minutes. Diogo Dalot glided for 256 minutes, and Noussair Mazraoui quietly appeared for 45 minutes. Matthijs de Ligt showed off for 261 minutes, and Harry Maguire danced across 234 minutes. Meanwhile, Lisandro Martinez was as active as a hibernating bear. Ruben Amorim’s wild waltz across five matches saw players juggling minutes like a circus of footballing acrobats! Bruno Fernandes and Amad topped the charts with an identical 361 minutes each.
