No matter how friendly Manchester United is, Manchester United's loss to the Southeast Asian All-Star team comes as quite a shock.
Manchester United manager Ruben Amorim used a number of key players in a friendly match against the ASEAN All-Star (Southeast Asian All-Star) held at Bukit Jalil National Stadium in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia on the 28th (Korea time).
Casemiro, Diogo Dalot, Harry Maguire, Andre Onana and Rasmus Höirun will start, and Alejandro Garnacho and Ahmad Diallo, as well as Bruno Fernandes, will appear in the second half.
However, Manchester United lost 0-1 against the All-Star team, which worked together for only two days. In the 26th minute of the second half, he dedicated the first goal to winger Maung Maung Lewin (Rampoon Warriors).
British media 'Evening Standard' pointed out the lethargic performance, saying 'Manchester United players seemed to want to go home early'

"It is important that there were no injuries, but this is no excuse. We have to perform better."
Manager Amorim confessed that the game did not go as it meant due to the weather and conditions, saying, `I felt guilty about the team's performance from the beginning of the game.' As for the boos pouring into the squad "Yayu may be what we need. The fans were always by our side when we lost the EPL. I felt that the fans were with us at the end of the game. I'll look forward to the next season"
