Man Utd Asia Tour 2009

Location: Bukit Jalil Stadium

We managed to get the ticket to watch the re-match between Malaysia XI vs Man Utd due to the hotel bombing incident in Jakarta, including the one the MU team supposed to stay in. Since MU is here, they are capitalizing the tour in Asia to have the pre-season practice over here.

We managed to buy RM58 free-seating ticket in time and was a bit rushing to the stadium after the office hour. Once we entered the stadium, it was not as packed as the first match, which was full house. However, we still able to get a good seat as our colleague has arrived earlier to book a place for us.

We saw banner which carrying a request to sign the so called local hero, Mohd Amri Yahya who scored 2 goals against MU during the previous match, ended MU won the match 3-2. Besides that, the best part we loved to watch was Rooney became temporary goalkeeper during the warm-up session.

As we watch the match, our colleague told us the match was not as exciting as the first match. We were a bit bored half way through the match. The match ended with MU winning the game 2-0, thanks to MU young star Macheda and Michael Owen.
