Barcelona Vs. Manchester United Friendly, World Football Challenge: Red Devils Lead By 1-0 Score At Halftime

Barcelona have had the much better of the possession in the first half of their World Football Challenge friendly match against Manchester United, much to the surprise of no one. However, Manchester United have had the one great moment of brilliance in the game on the counter attack, and as a result they have a 1-0 lead at halftime.

The goal was created through a combination between Danny Welbeck and Nani on the break. Dimitar Berbatov started the match on the bench and 'Chicharito' Javier Hernandez is out with a concussion, meaning the speedy Welbeck got the start. It was Nani who showed off his speed on the goal, though, as Welbeck played him in on goal with a brilliant through ball. Nani stayed onside by inches before taking off and scoring on a one-on-one opportunity, putting his team up 1-0.

Expect big changes for both teams at halftime, since both will want to get looks at as many players as possible.
