App State beats Manchester United

If you follow soccer, you might have seen that the ASEAN All Stars beat Manchester United 1-0 in a friendly in Malaysia today/yesterday. It's being triumphed as another example of Man United futility, Glazers Out, Ruben Out, Sir Jim Out, they'll have to fire more lunch ladies, etc.

One of the ASEAN players (basically Asian all stars) who started was Harrison Delbridge, who played soccer at App State from 2010 to 2013. Harrison plays professionally in South Korea.

Harrison got a goal line clearance and generally played well. There's a photo of him and Bruno Fernandes, United's best player, on the field together.

So yes, App State helped pull off one of the greatest upsets in soccer history, sort of.
