Manchester United vs. Liverpool: Preview and TV schedule
Two Premier League rivals meet in the final of the International Champions Cup in Miami.

Louis van Gaal has already made a positive impression after three straight wins in the competition have United fans believing that this season will be better than last. Shinji Kagawa has played well and even 'Chicharito' Javier Hernandez has scored a goal. They're great signs that things might be turning around for the Red Devils.
Liverpool are still working to fill the hole left by the departure of Luis Suárez to Barcelona. Without a player capable of sliding right into his role, Brendan Rodgers is hoping new faces like Rickie Lambert, Adam Lallana and Emre Can can fuse with returning players to keep the club's momentum going. Lallana will have to wait for his chance as he continues to recover from a knee injury.
Yes it’s a preseason match, but it’s also United vs. Liverpool. Anytime these two teams meet, there’s a good chance something interesting will happen.
