Despite their efforts, Manchester United struggled in the first half, and Hong Kong took the lead with a goal from Juninho before the 20-minute mark. The rain continued to pour down, and Manchester United made some changes at halftime, bringing in players like Ayden Heaven, Amad, Kobbie Mainoo, Mason Mount, and Chido Obi-Martin to try and make a difference.
Manchester United's team talk seemed to have an impact, as Chido Obi scored an equalizing goal in the 1-1 tie. In the final ten minutes, the team looked more threatening, with Amad, Mount, and Chido Obi making a significant impact on the attack. Chido Obi scored again in the 82nd minute, sealing the victory for Manchester United with a header from Amad's delivery.
Just before the final whistle, Ayden Heaven scored the third goal for Manchester United, sealing the 3-1 win. The impressive performance by Chido Obi has caught the attention of manager Ruben Amorim, and it may signal that he is ready to play for the first team. With new signings Hojlund and Matheus Cunha joining the squad, there will be intense competition for a place in the attack next season.
As the match came to an end, Manchester United's young players will face stiff competition for a spot in the starting lineup next season, with Hojlund and Joshua Zirkzee potentially facing a lot of time on the bench.
