KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia � Police have detained a Malaysian woman who allegedly stabbed her husband in the chest for coming home late after watching a soccer match between Manchester United and Malaysia.
The man had promised to come back immediately after the match in Kuala Lumpur on Saturday evening, but his wife was �very angry� when he returned after midnight, district police chief Abdul Jalil Hassan said Tuesday.
The woman stabbed him twice in the chest with a kitchen knife and then took him to a hospital, where a doctor reported the incident to police, Abdul Jalil told The Associated Press.
�He was with friends after the match, so that�s why he came home late,� Abdul Jalil said.
The man was recovering in the hospital and police have not decided whether to charge the woman with any offense.
The English Premier League champions defeated Malaysia 3-2 on Saturday in their opening match on a preseason Asian tour.
