Man Utd Asia Tour 2009: Malaysia XI vs Man Utd

I have been waiting for past three months for this game, Malaysia XI vs Manchester United. I was not expecting Malaysia to beat Manchester United, but I was hoping Malaysia to score at least a goal against Manchester United.It was not because I underestimate our national team but I had to be realistic here.






When I looked at the starting line up of Malaysia and Manchester United, I thought Malaysia would not have a chance to score or even shoot on target. It was because Manchester United was playing their EPL stars.





Surprisingly, Malaysia played a very good football against United, champion of England. They controlled the game, they attacked United, and they managed to put the ball inside the goal post, not once but twice. Both goals scored by Amri Yahyah.

The match was ended by 3-2 to United. United was leading 2-0, thanks for goals from Wayne Rooney and Nani before Malaysia level at 2-2 via Amri Yahyah. Five minutes before the time, United new player, Michael Owen scored a goal on his debut to seal a victory against Malaysia.





The capacity of Bukit Jalil Stadium is 100000 and it was full house during the game, Malaysia vs Man Utd. What a great atmosphere when the crowd singing United song, screaming their favorite names, and also the Mexican waves.

Enjoy the pictures on the match day:
