FC Seoul 2:3 Manchester United

United Man of the Match:
Wayne Rooney, United's great hope for the coming season had his best game of the preseason. He had a very well taken headed goal to open the scoring for Man. United, then he played a perfect ball in for Macheda to finish the second. There is a lot expected of Rooney this season, and living up to expectations may prove difficult, but he was certainly on song today.

Match Notes:
- Giggs continues to grow older and play younger every season. He looks as fit as ever this preseason, playing good balls around the park, making elusive runs and keeping pressure on opposing defenders. Ryan Giggs looks hungry for nineteen this season.

- FC Seoul was able to pass the ball around much easier than they should have been able to. The defending was sloppy, and United were much too conservative giving the opponents too much time on the ball in the final third. Two goals to Seoul may indicate a lot more against the likes of Chelsea, Liverpool and Arsenal.

- Berbatov found the score sheet for the first time on this Asian Tour with a perfectly placed header off a Gibson goal. His one touch lay-offs are as good as ever, and hopefully he can prove Sir Alex right again in his confidence to keep Berbatov ahead of Tevez.

- It was interesting to see four natural central midfielders line up in a 4-4-2. The width in the first half was virtually non-existent which had to be expected with Anderson and Fletcher playing as wingers. Seeing versatility out of these players is good, but if we are going to rely on either of those players to play out wide this season our attack may start to look very one dimensional.

- This was by far the most competitive game of the preseason so far, with United playing an other actual club team. FC Seoul is a very good team, and they were unlucky at points during the match. This FC Seoul team would be competitive in the Premier League and they probably could relegation in the Premier League.

- Macheda had a well taken goal against Seoul off a beautiful through ball from Wayne Rooney. Macheda continues to show incredible composure in and around the eighteen yard box for some one of his age.

Final Thoughts:
Another match and another victory. This one was much shakier, and although preseaon matches don't matter its nice to see United keep on winning. Overall is was a good match to watch and the quality of FC Seoul surprised me more than anything else.
