Manchester United edged past Hong Kong 3-1 to finish their postseason friendly with an underwhelming win on Friday.

Hong Kong took the lead after 20 minutes with a goal from former Rangers winger Juninho. United responded after halftime, with Chido Obi equalizing and then scoring again in the 82nd minute to put his team ahead.

Ayden Heaven sealed the victory with a third goal in stoppage time.

This win followed a 1-0 loss to ASEAN All-Stars in Kuala Lumpur on Wednesday, where Ruben Amorim's side was booed off the pitch.

The match against Hong Kong was overshadowed by uncertainty surrounding the futures of Bruno Fernandes and Alejandro Garnacho, amid speculation they might leave the club this summer.

Fernandes is reportedly considering the offer from Saudi side, Al Hilal, and his exit will leave a big hole for Amorim to fill.

The club are close to completing a move for Matheus Cunha from Wolves, but more faces will need to come in to offset such a huge loss.
