Young Red Devils right-back, Matthew Olosunde was not among those who had traveled with Jose Mourinho's team for their tour of the United States.
In a game devoid of much clear-cut chances, Scott McTominay came closest to finding the breakthrough for United when he sent a speculative header goalwards but James Marcinkowski did well to hold onto his effort.
