Lukaku nets first Man Utd goal in friendly

Wednesday, 19 July 2017 07:00

Romelu Lukaku has scored his first goal for Manchester United in a friendly yesterday, 17 July.

The Belgian netted the winner for the Red Devils in a match against Real Salt Lake, beating the American team 2-1.

The 24-year-old signed from Everton for £75m. He scored 25 times for the Toffees last season.

Henrikh Mkhitaryan scored an equaliser before Lukaku added his own goal seven minutes from half-time.

The match was a friendly in name only – Juan Mata limped off the field with an injury after a heavy challenge and Antonio Valencia was shown a straight red for a strong tackle from behind.
