New signing Lukaku beat City keeper Ederson Moraes to Paul Pogba's pass on 37 minutes. Then Rashford drove in Jesse Lingard's pass two minutes later.

Lukaku struck first in the 37th minute with his second goal for his new club after arriving from Everton last week, the Belgian finding the net with a sensational finish on the half-volley from a narrow angle which exposed the positioning of City's new £35m goalkeeper Ederson.

Two minutes later, Rashford took Henrikh Mkhitaryan's pass all alone to the right of the City penalty area and placed the ball beyond Ederson to ensure the red half of Manchester prevailed in Houston.
