Maung Maung Lwin became one of the names mentioned a lot after Myanmar's 7-2 victory over Laos. This midfielder was the one who scored to increase the score to 4-2 at the end of the first half, before making a special mark with a celebration related to Bruno Fernandes.
Immediately after scoring, Maung Lwin celebrated with a photo of him with the Manchester United captain. The post on the ASEAN Cup 2026 homepage received high interaction with many likes and comments.
The photo is not a random moment. The Myanmar international once had the opportunity to play with the Southeast Asian stars squad in a friendly match with Manchester United, under the guidance of coach Kim Sang-sik. At this event, he also had the opportunity to take photos with Bruno Fernandes.
Bruno is also one of the players that Maung Lwin idolizes. Therefore, the Myanmar midfielder's choice of a photo taken with the Portuguese star to celebrate the goal creates a unique highlight for the match.
Returning to the match against Laos, Maung Maung Lwin played impressively but received a red card at the end of the second half due to a scuffle with an opposing player.
Currently, the Myanmar team has 6 points after 3 matches and still has a chance to compete for a semi-final ticket. In the final round, this team will be a guest against Thailand on August 8.
