Owen has two in two for United.
Owen got United's second against a Malaysia XI, just two minutes after Federico Macheda's 11th-minute opener, which proved to be the end of the scoring for United, despite their domination.
Anderson and Nani both wasted decent opportunities near the end.
And, despite the supposedly friendly nature of the contest, Wayne Rooney had plenty of fire in him as he reacted badly to a penalty area challenge when really he would have been better advised to let the matter rest.
Angry Beckham confronts boo-boys in Los Angeles
England international David Beckham found the criticism too much to take in his first home game back with Los Angeles Galaxy, which came against, of all teams, AC Milan on Sunday.

LA Galaxy fans make their feelings clear
The 34-year-old tried to hurdle a barrier to get to a group of fans who had been jeering him throughout the match and appeared to make a "come on" gesture. Security had to hold the star back as he tried to get across to the supporters, while one fan had to be stopped from getting out of the stand to confront the star.
A hardcore section of the crowd booed Beckham every time he touched the ball and held aloft signs reading "Go Home Fraud'' and "23: Repent'' in reference to his shirt number.

Terry: Still undecided.
Terry is yet to commit himself either way as he mulls over a big-money switch to Eastlands, though the Blues are desperate for their skipper to sign an extended deal.
Lampard, who came close to linking up with former boss Jose Mourinho at Inter Milan last summer, says Terry shouldn't be criticised for considering the offer.
AC Milan must improve Fabiano offer - agent
AC Milan must up their offer for Luis Fabiano if the striker is to leave Sevilla, according to his agent.

Luis Fabiano holds aloft the Confederations Cup Golden Shoe and adidas Silver Ball.
Jose Fuentes claims the Spanish club rejected a €14m offer from Milan last week for Fabiano, who has a £26m release clause and is under contract for another two seasons.
"Milan made a €14m offer, a figure that was not enough to acquire the striker,'' said Fuentes. "This figure undervalues the player and hence it cannot be accepted. Sevilla have every reason for not wanting to accept this offer.
"We now await to see if Milan will make a second offer for Luis Fabiano. But if Milan do not increase their bid it's clear that the club are not interested in Fabiano.''
The Brazil forward, who finished as the top scorer in the Confederations Cup last month, had been keen on joining the Rossoneri.
Gerrard appears in court on affray charges
England midfielder Steven Gerrard was in the dock on Monday as jurors waited to be called to try his affray case.
The Liverpool captain, 29, stood next to his six co-accused at Liverpool Crown Court in a dark grey suit and black suede shoes.
The millionaire star took his place behind the glass sealed dock in courtroom 4:1 as Judge Henry Globe QC, the Recorder of Liverpool, adjourned the hearing for legal discussions.
The midfielder arrived early at court to meet his solicitor Richard Green for discussions ahead of the trial opening. The father-of-two is accused of affray - which he denies.
It is alleged Gerrard was involved in a nightclub melee in Southport in the early hours of December 29 in which businessman Marcus McGee, 34, was injured.
Gerrard was celebrating Liverpool's 5-1 demolition of Newcastle when trouble began.
Gerrard, of Formby, Merseyside, is jointly charged with Accrington Stanley goalkeeper Ian Dunbavin, 28, of Guildford Road, Southport and midfielder Robert Grant, 18, of Enstone Road, Litherland.
Also on trial are John Doran, 29, of Woodlands Road, Ian Smith, 19, of Hilary Avenue, John McGrattan, 33, of Rimmer Avenue, and Paul McGrattan, 31, of Linden Drive, all of Huyton, Merseyside.
Following further legal submissions, the case was adjourned again until Tuesday morning without a jury being sworn in. The trial is scheduled to last between two and three weeks.
