Summary of Man Utd stars performances: Hojlund was a BIG trouble; Kobbie Mainoo shows GREAT debut

Although five Reds played for their various countries this evening, Kobbie Mainoo—who made his senior international debut for England this evening—is the star of the show. Moments after joining the fight, the 18-year-old glided across the park. He fit right in.

Although the teenager was only on for 15 minutes plus stoppage time, he showed glimpses of his quality and earned praise from several media outlets.

For instance, the Evening Standard wrote: ‘Huge ovation when sent on for his debut late on. Every bit as composed as billed, with one delightful turn in midfield.’

With 20 minutes remaining, Lewis Dunk replaced Harry Maguire, who had started the match against Brazil. Marcus Rashford was also called upon from the bench. Late in the game, the South Americans broke the tie when Endrick scored on a rebound after Vinicius Jr.’s save attempt.

Danish Reds duo Rasmus Hojlund and Christian Eriksen were also in action tonight. The latter played the full game, and the former was substituted five minutes from time, as their national team were held 0-0 at home to Switzerland.
