Manchester United beat Lens 3-1 in the warm-up match, but the two new recruits' performance in their first home match at the Otford Stadium was disappointing. Apart from the goalkeeper, O'Connor, who was sent to the opposition's half-volley, Mason Monty, who has been awarded the "Legendary No.7" jersey, also missed several chances of scoring a goal, including a "left-footed shot with a right-footed shot" six yards away from the goal, which is why he is said to be suffering from the "curse of the No.7".
Mason Monty, a regular in this match, had a golden opportunity to score a goal in the 14th minute, when Alejandro Canazo crossed from the left, Mason Monty was 6 yards away from the goal facing the empty goal, unattended, he shot with his left foot, but hit his right foot and bounced off the back of the ball, which is seriously "bizarre". 6 minutes later, the 24 year old England international shot from the penalty box was blocked by the opponents, and he did not have anything to do even though he had played the whole match.
Mason Monty joined Manchester United from Chelsea last month for a transfer fee of 60 million pounds (about 600 million Hong Kong dollars) and was given the No. 7 jersey left behind by Laurent Cronje, which was expected of him, but he played six warm-up matches without scoring or assisting, which is why public opinion is beginning to think that he will not be able to escape from the "No. 7 curse" fate.
