Man Utd vs Everton LIVE RESULT: Red Devils crowned Premier League Summer Series champions as Mbeumo makes debut
MANCHESTER UNITED have won the Premier League Summer Series! The Red Devils closed out their tour of the United States with a 2-2 draw with Everton - which saw Bryan Mbeumo get his first minutes in the iconic red shirt. Man Utd took the lead on 19 minutes after Bruno Fernandes slotted his penalty past Jordan Pickford. Moments before half-time, Iliman Ndiaye levelled the clash, getting on the end of a superb cross from Idrissa Gueye. After 69 minutes, Mason Mount put the Red Devils 2-1 up with a stunning curled finish. Moments later, Everton were back level after a crazy own-goal saw Amad Diallo's clearance deflect off Ayden Heaven and into the back of the net. Ruben Amorim's side couldn't end their Premier League Summer Series campaign with a 100 per cent record, but they will take the trophy back to Manchester. 6 minutes ago By Kieran Davies Man Utd 2-2 Everton 88. Mount plays a well-weighted pass into the path of Dorgu. He looks to get a shot away but his scuffed effort is well saved by Pickford. Hojlund kicks the post in anger, feeling he should have squared it to him. 8 minutes ago By Kieran Davies Man Utd 2-2 Everton 86. Aznou looks to drill a low cross in. It is deflected behind for a corner. As the cross comes in, Bayindir collects and falls on top of the ball. 10 minutes ago By Kieran Davies Man Utd 2-2 Everton 84. Almost another chance for The Toffees. Barry's first touch was poor and he invited the challenge from Maguire. The defender took both player and ball as he hoofed it into the stands. 11 minutes ago By Kieran Davies Man Utd 2-2 Everton 82. Moyes looks set to rotate his side some more. With the lack of depth to their squad, it makes sense giving the youngsters a run out to see if any of them are up to first-team duties this season. Dalot looks to make a run forward but Mykolenko reads it well to clear at the expense of a throw-in. 13 minutes ago By Kieran Davies Man Utd 2-2 Everton 80. The Toffees look keen to get a winner here. Barry is back on the field after receiving some treatment. We have another stoppage after two Everton players collide going for the same ball. 15 minutes ago By Kieran Davies Man Utd 2-2 Everton 78. Barry goes down in a heap on the floor. The referee waves play on, not feeling it was a foul by Heaven. Watching the replay, it seems the Man Utd youngster got away with one there. 25 minutes ago By Kieran Davies Man Utd 1-1 Everton 68. The Everton press is working well. As soon as a ball is played into anyone in the attacking third, they immediately have a player bearing down on them. The Red Devils recycle it well and come forward once again. 27 minutes ago By Kieran Davies Man Utd 1-1 Everton 66. Heaven is down receiving some treatment. He was caught by a stray arm from Barry. It gives the players a chance to have a little breather. 28 minutes ago By Kieran Davies Man Utd 1-1 Everton 64. Moyes does not look happy on the bench. He seems to be moaning to his coaches about some part of their play. The Scot is looking very animated despite it only being a pre-season friendly. 31 minutes ago By Kieran Davies Man Utd 1-1 Everton 62. It looks as though Moyes is switching to a back five. Looking to get full-backs down the flanks to support attacks. Man Utd come forward but the deliveries into the box are poor, they have no one who can dominate aerially to win it. 33 minutes ago By Kieran Davies Man Utd 1-1 Everton 60. Everton make a host of changes themselves. The most notable is McNeil who can create some chances. Tarkowski, Beto, Gueye and Alcaraz make way. 35 minutes ago By Kieran Davies Man Utd 1-1 Everton 58. What a wasted chance for The Toffees Beto and Alcaraz get in each other's way when one of them should have been pulling the trigger. That should have been a second goal for Moyes' side. 37 minutes ago By Kieran Davies Man Utd 1-1 Everton 56. Cunha gets to the byline and cuts it back into the middle. It strikes Garner's arm on the floor but the referee waves away claims for another penalty. The corner comes in and Amad's touch takes it out for a goal kick. Heaven, Mount and Maguire come on for Man Utd. They replace Shaw, Yoro and Mainoo. 39 minutes ago By Kieran Davies Man Utd 1-1 Everton 54. Everton loft a long ball into the box. Bayindir comes to collect it with ease. Man Utd look like mentally they are all still in the changing rooms. 41 minutes ago By Kieran Davies Man Utd 1-1 Everton 52. A slip by Ugarte allows Everton to break. Man Utd manage to get numbers back to clear their lines. This is a woeful display by the Uruguayan midfielder. 43 minutes ago By Kieran Davies Man Utd 1-1 Everton 50. Man Utd are seeing a lot of the ball but their passing game seems to have no end product. Ruben Amorim said as much during the break in his interview. For all the money they have spent up top, they should look more of an attacking threat than Wolves, who Cunha left for them.

Man United chief executive Omar Berrada insists the club are 'working around the clock' to strengthen the squad amid interest in £70m-rated Benjamin Sesko
Manchester United chief executive Omar Berrada says the club are 'working around the clock' to strengthen the squad before the transfer window closes. United have spent close to £140million this summer on Bryan Mbeumo, Matheus Cunha and Diego Leon. They want to bring in a new striker as talks continue over RB Leipzig centre-forward Benjamin Sesko, with a central midfielder and goalkeeper the other possibilities. Speaking before United's final US tour game against Everton in Atlanta, Berrada said: 'We have to do a lot of multi-tasking. We have a team back home led by (director of football) Jason (Wilcox), the recruitment team, that is working around the clock to ensure that we continue to find opportunities to strengthen our squad. 'There are lots of late calls and early morning meetings to make sure that we stay on top of it. 'What we want to do is to win and to start winning titles as soon as possible. Of course, adding players helps. We have seen the arrival of Bryan Mbeumo, Matheus Cunha and Diego Leon. 'They have adapted really well. We are going to see Bryan play for the first time (in Atlanta), Matheus has already shown his quality and Diego has shown that he is adapting very quickly having just come from Paraguay, so all of the signs are positive and we are cautiously optimistic. We hope we are going to have a great season.' Amorim revealed over the weekend that he has installed a six-player leadership team to keep discipline among the squad, and Berrada underlined the importance of maintaining high standards. 'The mood has been very good,' he added. 'The culture, the standards, the values, we are trying to ensure that we create a team spirit that allows the players to compete at the highest level. We have very high standards, Ruben is very clear about that and so is Jason Wilcox. It is something we want to see with the players, with the staff, with everyone. 'It is about raising standards and being very disciplined, and the way you approach the application of those standards. We have to make sure that everybody abides by them, that everybody believes in them and that nobody falls out of line. It is really important for us to create that sense of togetherness around a single idea.'

James Maddison knee injury mars Son Heung-min's Spurs' send off in Seoul
James Maddison sustained a serious looking knee injury as Tottenham's pre-season tour of Asia concluded with a draw against Newcastle in Seoul on Sunday. The England international was carried off on a stretcher and appeared to be in obvious pain after going down unchallenged late in the game. Maddison, 28, missed the closing stages of last season, including the Europa League final, with a knee problem and his latest injury affects the same joint. The Spurs head coach, Thomas Frank, said: 'I think sometimes in life and football things can be both beautiful and brutal – that's what we got today. It looks like with Madders a bad injury, and then on the other side unbelievable scenes for Son from his teammates and the respect from the Newcastle players.' The friendly, which ended 1-1, was otherwise notable for the emotional reception the departing Son Heung-min received from fans in his home city. Son, 33, confirmed this week that he is to leave Spurs this summer after a decade at the club. The South Korea international, who wore the captain's armband, was given a standing ovation and a guard of honour from players of both teams when he was substituted in the 64th minute. Son, who scored 173 goals in 454 competitive appearances for the club, said the occasion was an emotional one. The forward also thanked Frank for his understanding having told him he wishes to seek a fresh challenge. Son told the club's website: 'It was a perfect moment. Sharing these beautiful moments are something that I will never forget and I will always appreciate it – from the fans, the players and the gaffer. 'He understood my situation and was always on my side. He always listened to me and asked what I wanted to do. I have a huge respect and am very grateful.' Reflecting on his time in north London, he said: 'I wish them all the best. There are five competitions ahead and I hope they win all the five competitions. That's my wish. 'Spurs will always be in my heart and the boys will always be in my history books. It was incredible. They've gone so fast, the 10 years. I can only think about the beautiful moments, amazing moments.' Tottenham later announced the signing of the Portugal midfielder João Palhinha on loan from Bayern Munich. The 30-year-old's move is subject to international clearance and obtaining a work permit, with Spurs holding an option to make it a permanent transfer next summer. Palhinha returns to the Premier League having spent two seasons at Fulham before joining Bayern in July 2024, going on to win the Bundesliga title last season and then helping Portugal to Nations League success. Sign up to Football Daily Kick off your evenings with the Guardian's take on the world of football after newsletter promotion 'When I knew of the interest from Tottenham, I didn't need to think about it too much. I just wanted to come (here),' Palhinha told Spursplay. 'The coach (Frank) is probably the main thing which had more of an impact on my decision – when you feel that someone wants you, it means a lot and you are closer to making an easy decision. 'I will try to help to show again what I am capable to do it. Now my home is here [in London] and I will try to enjoy these moments with my family.'
