Quick Review
A first-half strike from youngster Jonathan Evans and a brace from Paul Scholes gave the Premiership giants a merited victory in front of a sparse Celtic Park crowd.
After the morale-boosting 1-0 win over Everton on Sunday, the Hoops were chasing a second Premiership scalp in the space of three days. In what is fast becoming a regular fixture between the two sides, Celtic were also out to avenge a 1-0 defeat in Roy Keane’s Testimonial at Old Trafford in May.
Trivia
Celtic's final pre-season friendly ended in disappointment as a young Manchester United outfit put an experimental Hoops side to the sword with an impressive display.
