In the regular time, the teams scored a goal, and then realized only 3 of 10 hits in the series of penalty shoot-outs - 2: 1 in favor of United.

It is unlikely that the head coach of Manchester United Jose Mourinho considered the fight against Real as a rehearsal of the UEFA Super Cup. There are big doubts that in the duel for this trophy the Special (for all its peculiarity) will leave in reserve David De Gea, Victor Lindelof (although, looking ahead, Jones looked very worthy. But Lindelof disappoint), Paul Pogba, Ander Herrera, Genriha Mhitaryana, Antonio Valencia and Romelu Lukaku.

As for Real, then the cream came out a composition very close to the main. Cristiano Ronaldo was not, but the Portuguese is still resting after playing for his team at the Confederations Cup. And so from the basis was absent only Sergio Ramos, but instead of Kazemiro came Isko.

The first slightly dangerous moment arose already in the 5th minute of the fight - after filing Karim Benzema had to enter the game Sergio Romero. The Argentinian hit the ball, and then the defenders. Alas, the beginning turned out to be deceptive - in the future the teams did not indulge viewers with dangerous moments. In the center of the field reigned Maruan Fellaini, who managed to take the ball and pass the passes (even if they did not carry a real sharpness).

In general, the defensive lines of the teams looked much better than those who supposedly should score - the attacks over and over again encountered a competent game of defencists. If at the beginning of the first part of the meeting Manchester United dominated, at the end of the half-time the initiative went to Real.

And then Antonie Martial. The Frenchman gained speed on the flank, shifted, leaving three players out of the blue in white and rolled out against Jesse Lingard. Tom could only miss a couple of meters on the empty gates. Jesse did not miss - 1: 0. With this team and went to the break.

In the second half, Real Madrid did not even release a half-reserve, but a real double with some interspersed proximate / main players - Casillia, Kovacic, Kazemiro, Theo Ernedes appeared, and the rest - solid canterano club. By the way, Luka Zidane never appeared on the field. Father father, but the claim to the place at least in the application he still has to prove.

But Jose Mourinho threw heavy artillery into battle - here and De Gea, and Lindelef, and Mkhitaryan, and Pogba, and Herrera, and Lukaku. Separately it should be noted the Swedish newcomer to the team - unlike the well-played in the first half of Jones, Victor with his duties did not do very well. It was he who brought a penalty, from which in the 69th minute he will equalize Kazemiro's score.

And it must be the same - if in the first half, the reserve of the United States looked more preferable to the base of Real Madrid, then in the second half of the meeting the youth of Real already dominated the base of the Red Devils.

Alas, the dangerous moments, in fact, and there was. More than 65 thousand fans who very badly supported other people's teams for themselves, could be upset if they did not know what awaits them for a gourmet dish - a series of penalties. The rules of the International Champions Cup include a break 11-meter in the case of a tie in regular time. The winner earns 2 points, the loser - only 1 point.

Slowly the game and rolled into a series of penalties. And then ... there was something strange afterwards: the teams decided to compete, whoever beats the penalty is worse. And if the prize "The most untalented execution of a penalty" went to Lindelef, who punched exactly in the leg standing in the center of Cassilie, then in the team standings a dubious achievement was achieved by Real - Creamers did not score 4 hits, while Manchester United - "only 3". The decisive blow did not realize Kazemiro - Carlos again struck powerfully, but this time only shook the crossbar.

Total - MJ won on a 2: 1 penalty and scored in the coin box the next 2 points on the MCH. In the next round, the Red Devils will try to win in regular time to Barcelona (well, not to suffer again in the penalty shootout?), And Real Madrid will play with another Manchester - this time with the City.
