Man United won their first pre-season tour game against Real Betis, with two youngsters excelling at the Snapdragon Stadium but Marcus Rashford went off injured.
Amad clarified this week that he is capable of playing anywhere in attack. He lived up to that billing in San Diego.
Amad's second goal of pre-season, reminiscent of his arrowed strike against Newcastle in May, will fuel calls for his inclusion among the starters against Manchester City at Wembley on Saturday week.READ MORE: United explain McClaren departure Sam Murray started in Trondheim and Edinburgh ahead of Amass but the younger left back is maximising his Stateside exposure. Amass only joined the academy from Watford last year yet could be mistaken for a talent hothoused at United since he was in primary school. His cross was turned in by Amad and Amass was more defensively alert after he switched off for Arsenal striker Gabriel Jesus to equalise last week.
That Ten Hag turned to Victor Lindelof to start when he is available for transfer practically implored the new structure to submit a third offer for Jarrad Branthwaite or meet Bayern Munich's valuation for Matthijs de Ligt. Ten Hag only has three senior centre backs in the United States and United's defence is in a state.
That was a throwback to last year when Sancho was trialled as a false nine. United's provisional plan was to rotate Rashford with Hojlund, completely overlooking the barely present Anthony Martial. Rashford's striker stint ended two games into the Premier League season. Amad was involved in three goalscoring opportunities inside the first ten minutes and was somehow denied a penalty in the third. The next time he broke into the area, he was cynically upended and Rashford nonchalantly converted the spotkick.
