Watch: Michael Owen captains Liverpool legend side; Fowler among the goals

Liverpool fans will probably have the name of Michael Owen very low down a list of players who we’d like to captain a legends team but that’s what’s happened in Hong Kong.

Taking part in the ‘World Football Legends Cup 2024’, the likes of Steve McManaman and Bruce Grobbelaar were also part of the team.

It was Luis Garcia and Robbie Fowler who managed to score for the Reds but that didn’t stop a 5-2 loss for the team of former heroes.

The team, that was actually called ‘Owen All Stars’ were defeated by ‘Scholes All Stars’ – meaning it must have been hard for the former Manchester United man to lose to many of his former teammates.
