David Moyes has described his first victory as Manchester United manager as a "special night" following Saturday's 5-1 win over the A-League All Stars.
Danny Welbeck and Jesse Lingard scored two goals each at the ANZ Stadium in Sydney before substitute Robin van Persie netted late on in what was an emphatic triumph for the tourists.
"It was a special night to get my first victory as Manchester United manager," Moyes told reporters.
"It was a good performance. We could maybe have got a few more goals – we hit the post and had one or two other chances as well.
"It was a good game for us. We stepped up and I thought we looked a bit fitter tonight, a bit more ready, and the temperature possibly helped us a bit more than in Thailand."
United continue their pre-season tour against Yokohama F. Marinos in Japan on Tuesday.
