The official Manchester United thread 2009/2010

[dallas23]

Michael Owen scored the winner on his Manchester United debut on a pre-season tour of Asia.

A day after United were forced to cancel the Indonesia leg of the four-country tour following the hotel bombings in Jakarta, Sir Alex Ferguson's men were given a stern test by a plucky Malaysia XI side.

Owen was given the auspicious number seven shirt worn by George Best, Bryan Robson, Eric Cantona, David Beckham and Cristiano Ronaldo, and Ferguson said it was a challenge he would relish.

He came off the bench to score the winning goal, giving United a 3-2 victory over a side ranked 157th in the FIFA rankings.

Wayne Rooney and Portuguese winger Nani gave them a 2-0 lead after 27 minutes, but Malaysia striker Amri Yahyah struck either side of the break, before Owen rounded the keeper to score five minutes from time.

Ferguson said: "I'm happy with the result and happy with the team. It was a typical Michael Owen goal. He was the first to react and the finish was what you would expect from him."
