Hello and welcome to Eurosport's LIVE text commentary of Manchester United's International Champions Cup friendly with Inter Milan. Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is targeting a third consecutive victory in pre-season having guided his side to convincing victories over Perth Glory and Leeds. Inter present United's first test of the summer, however, and considering the temperature in Singapore exceeds 30 degrees today, it will be interesting how the Red Devils perform.

35'
We're back underway and United squander another half-decent opportunity. This is a decent free-flowing move but Rashford selfishly goes for a shot which goes harmlessly over the bar. It must have taken a nick, though, as United win the corner.
32'
It's time for a drinks break.

United chance! How did that stay out? Shaw rolls a dangerous ball across the face of goal but Handanovic gets a crucial touch to take it from the toes of Rashford, who was certain to score.
30'
Inter win a free-kick in a promising enough position but, for reason unknown, they play it all the way back to Handanovic before surrendering the ball to United. Conte can't be pleased with this performance so far.
28'
With the resulting free-kick, Rashford smashes the ball into the Inter wall. Disappointing.
27'
Intricate, one-touch passing from United as they move forward with intent. It comes to nothing but United soon regain possession and then Lingard then draws the foul a moment later. Brozovic the culprit once more.
25'
24'
Good handling from Handanovic to save Martial's shot from distance. It was dipping and could have been awkward but the Inter goalkeeper got behind it well.
23'
Inter win another free-kick, this time in a promising position on the left. Sensi's cross is floated in dangerously but United's defending is on point and they head clear.
21'
Bizarre decision by the referee. Martial appears to be clipped and goes to ground. The ref blows for a foul, but it goes Inter's way. Was that for handball? Did Martial touch the ball with his hand when he went down?
20'
Sensi's corner delivery drifts over everyone in the United penalty area. That's poor.
19'
First real sign of intent from Inter as the ball is switched to Candreva and he delivers a dangerous-looking cross. It's cleared behind for a corner.
17'
United's high press is causing Inter problems, yet they continually try to play out from the back. Solskjaer's youthful side are looking good out there.

That's just wide! Shaw is aiming for the bottom corner with a lovely drive from 25 yards, and he almost finds it. The ball curls just agonisingly wide. I'm not sure Handanovic was getting there!
13'
A wild pass in Inter's midfield gives United possession and Rashford darts forward on the counter. He has options either side but selfishly tries to go it alone and is crowded out on the edge of the penalty area.
12'
Dalbert beats Wan-Bissaka for pace to deliver a cross. United's defence make a mess of their clearance and concede the corner. It comes to nothing.
11'
Brozovic lunges at James and in a competitive game that's a yellow. It's a friendly so he escapes with a caution from the referee.
9'
Rashford is in confident mood. Twisting and turning to find space to have a shot on the edge of the penalty area, he sees the effort deflect behind for a United corner. Solskjaer's side have started well.
8'
A dangerous through-ball finds Inter's 17-year-old sensation Espositio on the right. But he has few options in the middle and his cross is easily dealt with by the United defence.
6'
Wan-Bissaka has been encouraging at full-back in pre-season. He loves a challenge. The Englishman shows great athleticism and determination to block Candreva's cross.
5'
Inter are playing catch up fitness-wise. The Serie A season kicks off a couple of weeks after the Premier League commences.
