The 3-2 loss in Las Vegas on Monday morning was the final stop on Manchester United’s preseason tour of the United States.
Diogo Dalot opened the score with a long-range attempt that he curled into the top corner in the first half.
Donyell Malen scored two goals in the final minute of the first half, and United looked comfortable until then. The score was now 2-1 in favor of Germany at halftime.
After a penalty box panic by Dortmund, van de Beek passed the ball to Antony, and the Brazilian calmly tapped it home to draw United level just six minutes into the second half.
Then, after another careless pass by United, Dortmund took the lead once more.

After receiving a pinpoint ball from Donny van de Beek, he finished with a curving shot that beat Dortmund goalkeeper Gregor Kobel in the first half.
Despite the quality of the finish, Erik ten Hag probably still won’t change his mind about who starts at right back.
