But the match was overshadowed by a freak injury suffered by Chong in the second half, leading him to receive medical attention at Stadion Rogla.

Right next to the touchline there is a small grassy bank with wooden steps leading up to the top, and as the 24-year-

old raced down the wing, he was forced into them following a collision with an opponent.

It saw the former Manchester United star, who played for the Red Devils from 2019 to 2022, crash into the steps with violent speed.

And the Dutchman did not look in good condition with the friendly being halted for several moments.

Eventually, Chiedozie Ogbene came on in his place but thankfully, it appears that Chong will make a full recovery.

Hatters boss Rob Edwards addressed the incident in his post-match interview with the club’s media team, giving a positive update.

He said: “He’s alright, thank goodness. It was an impact [injury], their guy has gone over there very quickly and managed him

“We just wanted to make sure that everything is alright.p.

“But he is alright, it was just a few bangs and bruises in the end.”

Morris scored the only goal of the game after finding the target in the 15th minute with help from Chong, who combined with Alfie Doughty before finding the Luton striker.

The Hatters take on Turkish side Goztepe in Slovenia on Saturday as they continue their pre-season preparations.
