Eric Bailly was a second half substitute for Manchester United in their emphatic 4-0 win over Liverpool in a pre-season friendly on Tuesday.

The Ivorian centre-back was in fantastic form, keeping Liverpool’s attack at bay for much of the half, sometimes almost singlehandedly.

With Man United 3-0 up and searching for a fourth, Bailly took matters into his own hands.

The defender intercepted a pass on the edge of his box and drove forward, despatching Liverpool midfielder, Thiago with a drop of his shoulder and a stepover.

Laying off the ball to Facundo Pellistri, Bailly continued storming forward, creating some confusion in the Reds’ defence.

Pellistri passed to Amad Diallo, who shifted the ball back into the Uruguayan’s path for a finish past the Liverpool goalkeeper.

However, it was Bailly who earned all the praise for the move.
