Asian Newspaper: "Man Utd lost miserably to a team that only had 2 days of training"

Immediately after the match, the famous media channel ESPN Asia commented: "Even in the midst of a slump, Man Utd probably did not expect to suffer a shocking 0-1 defeat against the ASEAN All Stars team."

“Despite facing much more illustrious opponents, the hastily formed ASEAN All Stars team emerged victorious, thanks to a 71st-minute strike from Myanmar player Maung Maung Lwin.

He made no mistake as he dived to face the goalkeeper. Maung Maung Lwin calmly finished neatly into the net, after being passed by Adrian Segecic,” ESPN added.

Then this famous media channel specializing in Asian football analyzed the difference between the two teams Manchester United and ASEAN All Stars: "Man Utd came to Malaysia for the big money, while the ASEAN All Stars came for the victory."

Meanwhile, Malaysia's leading English-language daily New Straits Times ran the headline: "Man Utd suffer shock defeat in Kuala Lumpur (venue of the match between the English team and ASEAN All Stars)."

In the content section, this newspaper used blunt words about Man Utd's weakness: "Man Utd's disastrous season extends from the Premier League to Kuala Lumpur. The former English football champion has declined and is now declining even more."

“This time, Man Utd suffered a shock defeat to the ASEAN All Stars at Bukit Jalil Stadium, in front of over 72,000 Malaysians, who must have been disappointed with the English team's poor performance.

What is even more remarkable and surprising is that the ASEAN All Stars team was hastily assembled. The team had less than 48 hours to train together. The ASEAN All Stars team had only practiced one session before the match,” the New Straits Times added.

Meanwhile, on Thailand's Siam Sport, the newspaper said: "Maung Maung Lwin scored a surprise goal that caused Man Utd to lose to the ASEAN All Stars team with a score of 0-1."

“The ASEAN All Stars team fought very well against Man Utd. They had chances to shoot at the English team’s goal, causing Man Utd goalkeeper Onana to struggle.

The highlight happened in the 71st minute, when Australian player Adrian Segecic passed the ball to Maung Maung Lwin. He finished by beating Man Utd's substitute goalkeeper Tom Heaton, scoring the goal that helped the ASEAN All Stars team win 1-0," wrote the same lines in Siam Sport.

After the match with the ASEAN All Stars team, Man Utd will have a friendly match with the Hong Kong team (China) on the evening of May 30, at the Hong Kong stadium.
