Sir Alex Ferguson was pleased with new signing Nani's scoring debut as the Reds hit Shenzhen FC for six on Monday.

The Portuguese winger was one of half a dozen goalscorers as the Reds cruised to a 6-0 win at the Macau Stadium in the third and penultimate match of United's four-game Asia Tour.

"[One game and one goal], it's a ratio that I hope he keeps going," Sir Alex told MUTV. "He did very well. It was his first game after an injury, but I was pleased."

Sir Alex used 19 players in total during the match, a sign that the entire squad is benfitting from minutes on the pitch. "I wanted to use as many players as I can," he said. "It's an exercise in getting everyone fit, that's what pre-season tours are about.

"We were able to do that, in the second half I brought on seven players which was good. Everyone had a share of the action. In the final game I will hopefully be able to give the likes of Phil Bardsley, Danny Simpson and Dong Fangzhuo more football.

"I thought young Darron Gibson, who has been out injured, did well in midfield. It shows the judgement in bringing him to the club, it's good to see the results of our scouting missions."

Although Shenzhen offered very little in the way of resistence, the humidity in Macau was difficult to deal with. "We found it a bit difficult at times in the heat," added the boss. "The humidity was very high but, nonetheless, goals are goals and some of them were very good.

"In the first match there was a bit of rustiness, which is natural in your first game back. But in the last two games (against FC Seoul and Shenzhen) we've not looked like conceding."
