But despite a campaign so bad it made Ruben Amorim apologise, some players took part in a tradition normally saved for champions.

A few members of the squad boarded an open-top bus that cruised through the streets of Kuala Lumpar this afternoon.

A low number of supporters lined the streets to get a glimpse of their heroes in a bizarre victory-less parade.

Joshua Zirkzee was seen waving to fans as Matthijs De Ligt and Ayden Heaven stood glumly next to him.

“We don’t have it in us not to choke in every exercise, in every game, that is what happened. 

“We should win these kind of games, no matter what. We need to bring that inside of us in every game.

“The important thing is no injuries with this weather and to arrive here in this day. It is not an excuse, we should perform better.”

United travel to Hong Kong next to play the country’s national team on Friday afternoon.
