TAG Heuer kicked off its partnership with MUFC in Beijing when the club swung by the Chinese capital for its ICC game.
If you have to ask what MUFC is, then home to you must be under a rock, high up on a mountain in the farthest reaches of the planet. Manchester United Football Club is, strictly speaking, a football club, but it really is more than that. Man U is practically a household name. Even people who don’t know much about football – or soccer if you’re American – know of Man U. Even women who couldn’t care less about football have claimed to support the club at some point, specifically when the number seven jersey was worn by one David Robert Joseph Beckham. Whoever they are, those 67 million Facebook fans must count for something. To those for whom football is a religion, and old Trafford is their temple, the names to worship are George Best, Ryan “Giggsy” Giggs, Eric Cantona, Peter Schmeichel, and who could forget baby-faced assassin ole Gunnar solskjær?
