On Saturday evening, Manchester United faced Arsenal in pre-season. A shock poster between two teams hoping to fight for the Premier League title. Mason Mount started again for the Red Devils, while for the Gunners, Declan Rice and Jurriën Timber made their debuts. Unfortunately for the Londoners, the Mancunians were more sharp, and this from the first half which saw Bruno Fernandes (30th) as well as Jadon Sancho (37th) register the only two achievements of the meeting. On arrival, a 0-2 success for Manchester United, who even offered themselves a penalty shootout won 3-5. The third victory in three matches for the men of Erik ten Hag, already sharp. Opposite, no one stood out, the addition of Kai Havertz in the middle disturbing the habits of the Gunners a little.

Moisés Caicedo in the stands, Levi Colwill holder for his first with the Blues, and in the end, a resounding 4-3 victory for the Blues, in numerical superiority. Nicolas Jackson once again stood out, scoring 1 goal while delivering 2 caviars, including one for Mykhailo Mudryk who scored his first goal in Chelsea colours. Christopher Nkunku also planted, for the second time in as many meetings. Finally, the twirling Kaoru Mitoma did not exist against Malo Gusto, very solid defensively. Next meeting Wednesday against Newcastle for Mauricio Pochettino, who seems to have prepared his team particularly well.
