Manchester United Fan In Malaysia

A very good match considering in this kind of tournament.. every match is more like friendly match rather than the actual competition. Bayern Munich
Were the better team in the first half…but when second half started… the German powerhouse required nerves of steel to fend off Manutd attack in front of a sell-out crowd of 69,000 at their Allianz Arena after United strikers Wayne Rooney and Michael Owen missed great chances in the second half to win the match.

Bayern enjoyed the better of the first half, in which Mario Gomez and Dimitar Berbatov both hit the woodwork, but United then had the better opportunities after the interval – only for Rooney and Owen to fail to beat Bayern goalkeeper Michael Rensing in one-on-one situations.

The tackle on new signing Micheal Owen by Bayern’s Martin Demichelis was a major scare for Manutd fan and Sir Alex. If it had been a competitive match Demichelis would have received a red card. Then, the striker stayed on but was left holding his ankle as he tried to run the problem off.
He eventually went on to play until the 78th minute when he was replaced by Wayne Rooney.

Final score….
Both team failed to score in normal time and at the end..the epic penalty showdown has been won by Bayern Munich 7-6.

Interesting match if we compared with the match against Malaysia. This match is the toughest match in Asia Tour so far.

The 64,000 capacity Korean crowd had been baying for an appearance from their hero since he first emerged for the warm-up, but they would have to wait for a fifteen-minute cameo late on as the midfielder was named on a ten-man bench.

Final result : FC Seoul 2 Manchester United 3
