Obi helps MU avoid embarrassment. |
After losing to Asean All Stars, coach Ruben Amorim sent Bruno Fernandes onto the field from the start. With the appearance of the Portuguese "conductor", MU created an overwhelming position against the Hong Kong (China) team.
The reigning Europa League runner-up created a series of opportunities, but Rasmus Hojlund, Alejandro Garnacho, and Bruno Fernandes were unable to take advantage.
In the 36th minute, Bruno faced the goalkeeper but he performed a fancy rabona, causing the opportunity to pass. When MU managed to put the ball in the home team's net, Casemiro's header was disallowed for offside.
On the other hand, Hong Kong (China) only needed one attack to open the scoring. In the 19th minute, Juninho broke free and fired a not-so-dangerous shot, but Tom Heaton pushed the ball into the net.
MU's attack continues to have a bad performance. |
In the second half, Hojlund was replaced by Chido Obi. Mason Mount, Kobbie Mainoo, Manuel Ugarte also entered the field. MU accelerated and equalized in the 50th minute. After Ugarte's pass, Obi fired a left-footed shot into the far corner, giving the goalkeeper no chance to block.
After the equalizer, it seemed like MU would create another breakthrough, but no, Amorim's team played awkwardly, even almost conceding a second goal, after a counterattack by the home team in the 69th minute.
In the 82nd minute, Chido Obi spoke up again with a positional choice, jumping high to head the ball into the far corner, helping MU complete the comeback. The creator was Mason Mount. In the final minute of injury time, the home team's net shook for the third time, after a header by Ayden Heaven.
The match ended with a 3-1 victory for MU. The next friendly match for the Old Trafford team will be on July 19. Their opponent is Leeds, the club that just won the English First Division championship.
