Luis Enrique takes positives from Manchester United defeat

Barcelona boss Luis Enrique believes that Saturday's pre-season friendly against Manchester United 'served to help improve the team's rhythm'.

The Catalan outfit were beaten 3-1 by the Premier League club in their second game of their pre-season tour of the United States.

However, Enrique has taken the positives from the friendly in California.

"It was a good game. It served to improve our rhythm," Enrique told reporters.

Rafinha found the back of the net for Barcelona, while Wayne Rooney, Jesse Lingard and Adnan Januzaj were on the scoresheet for the English side.
