The duo appeared unable to access or pay for the service themselves and reportedly asked the fan to cover the payment on their behalf and assist in setting the scooters up. The situation drew an amused crowd, with other players – including Ayden Heaven – facing similar difficulties.
The scene quickly turned into a fan frenzy, as curious pedestrians and United supporters flocked around the players to get a glimpse of the footballers outside their usual match setting. Once the issue was resolved, the players obliged fans with selfies, much to the delight of the Malaysian public.

Despite the enthusiasm of fans abroad, the club’s on-field struggles have been well documented. Under the leadership of head coach Ruben Amorim, they endured one of their poorest seasons in recent memory as they limped to a 15th-place finish in the Premier League, far from the lofty standards traditionally associated with the club.
Following their 1-0 loss to the ASEAN All-Stars, United’s travelling squad will head to Hong Kong for their final fixture before the summer break, where they are set to take on the Hong Kong national team on May 30.
