"It was a fantastic game. Both sides put a lot of effort into the match and produced some really good play.
"A feature of our football on this tour has been the manner in which we have taken our goals and the fans saw two tonight from Ryan Giggs and Ruud van Nistelrooy which were very special."
United boast a 100 per cent record from their three US tour games so far, scoring 11 times in the process. And, while Marcello Lippi anticipated defeat due to Juve's lack of preparation for the game, he said the performance of his Serie A champions was unacceptable.
"When you play against a team of Manchester United's calibre, you know it is possible you might lose the game," said Lippi.
"But that doesn't mean you can just go out and play on your own.
We are only 10 days into our preseason programme and that might account for the defeat because United passed the ball far quicker than we did.
"But what really made me mad was seeing some players lose the ball and not try to win it back, particularly in the first half.
"You can be a champion player but even great champions cannot play by themselves."
Ferguson had no such problems and it is clear why he wants Veron to stay at United.
The familiar swagger, which so often proves to be a prelude to disappointment, was this time accompanied by assurity in possession that allowed United to pick off their opponents almost at will.
With Giggs, Scholes and Solskjaer operating in advance of Roy Keane and Veron at the hub of United's midfield, Juventus found themselves in plenty of trouble. They didn't look like a team who reached the Champions League Final - at Old Trafford - in May.
All that was missing from Veron's performance was a goal, but Giggs claimed that accolade, exorcising David Beckham's ghost in the process.
In the past, United would have turned to the England skipper when Scholes was up-ended on the edge of the penalty area. But those days are gone and Giggs's response was perfect, curling his shot beyond Gigi Buffon to put his side in front.
The goal maintained United's stranglehold in recent meetings between the teams and provided them with a valuable psychological boost ahead of a possible meeting in the Champions League.
It was obvious the outcome was of significance to United, particularly Keane, who admonished teammates on the rare occasions they lost possession and clattered into opponents every time they looked like causing trouble.
Keane and Scholes were both booked in quick succession for late tackles on Enzo Maresca, who got his own back with a blatant shove on the United skipper to collect his own yellow card.
Making his debut on home soil, United's new American goalkeeper Tim Howard didn't have a lot to do, but performed competently enough, the highlight a feet-first save from Marco Di Vaio, by far Juve's most dangerous player.
It was Di Vaio who struck the United bar in the closing stages of the half but after Maresca had sent a brave, diving header spinning over shortly after the interval, Veron sent United surging clear.
Lippi responded by making nine substitutions, one of whom, Pavel Nedved, brought Juve some hope of a comeback with an excellent finish from an angle.
In a busier second half, Howard made a couple of excellent saves to deny David Trezeguet and Alessandro del Piero. "I thought Tim Howard was superb," said Ferguson. "He showed his reflexes, his spring his agility and courage."
This was a striker's night, though, and Solskjaer restored United's three-goal advantage with a strong finish from Forlan's pass.
The Uruguayan should have made it five late on but somehow contrived to bundle his shot wide after he had been presented with an open goal by Chimenti's blunder.
United now move on to Philadelphia for the final game of their current tour, when they are likely to face up to the man who snubbed them - Ronaldinho - when they encounter Barcelona on Sunday.
Juventus must pick themselves up after a difficult day when they also learned of the death of Vittorio Chiusano, president of the club since 1990, who had been suffering from heart trouble. He was 74.
