Southeast Asian newspaper speaks frankly about Man Utd after losing to ASEAN All-Stars

(Dan Tri) - Many Southeast Asian newspapers have criticized Man Utd, saying that they are too weak and suffered a shameful defeat against the ASEAN All-Stars team.

Despite being expected to explode when fielding a strong lineup, Man Utd disappointed when losing 0-1 to the Southeast Asian All-Stars. This result caused the Red Devils to receive heavy criticism from many sides. Even after the match ended, fans booed coach Ruben Amorim and his team.

The Bharian newspaper criticized Man Utd's poor performance. They wrote: "Southeast Asian stars put Man Utd to shame". The author commented: "Man Utd suffered a humiliating defeat against the Southeast Asian Stars team. More than 70,000 people came to Bukit Jalil Stadium to watch their idols, but they only witnessed a poor performance.

Man Utd suffered an unbelievable defeat against the Southeast Asian All-Stars, a team that was only assembled two days before the match.

Kosmo headlined: “Man Utd humiliated in Southeast Asia”. The Malaysian newspaper emphasized: “The giant of English football, Man Utd, was humiliated in Southeast Asia. Coach Ruben could not be satisfied when witnessing the weak performance of his students in 90 minutes”.

Meanwhile, Bola newspaper mocked Man Utd: “The Manchester team is too weak. They have no motivation to continue playing. Coach Kim Sang Sik must be very happy to defeat Man Utd. He even hopes that Coach Amorim will pay attention to Hai Long and consider recruiting him after this match.”

Another Indonesian newspaper, Detik, commented: “Man Utd struggled to find a way into the goal of the Southeast Asian All-Stars. They seemed to have little motivation to attack and find a goal.”

Today Line (Thailand) admitted that Man Utd fans had a moment of shame when watching their team play. “This humiliating defeat came just three days after Amorim’s team finished 15th in the Premier League, the club’s lowest position since 1974,” commented the Thai newspaper.

The Daily News has an article: “Man Utd lost form, burned by Southeast Asian stars”. This newspaper believes that Man Utd deserves to be criticized for losing to an opponent who is completely inferior in terms of level and class. Remember, Coach Amorim used quite a few key players of the Red Devils in this match.

After losing to the Southeast Asian All-Stars, Man Utd will play a friendly match against the Hong Kong team (China) on May 30.
