Plenty of action in Man Utd's Ajax Tournament game against Porto. Carrick made his debut and Solskjaer scored after an eternity out with injuries, while rooney and Scholes both scored before being sent off.

Rooney scored a reportedly sensational chip, but was given his marching orders for putting his hand in Ferreira's face as they contested a header.

Fergie wasn't too impressed with the card, telling Sky Sports "it was a ridiculous decision." Got to feel a bit of sympathy for Rooney, as another red card was the last thing the kid needed.

Final score was 3-1.
