Club career

2008–09

On 16 November 2008, Man played as captain and scored a wonder goal to help South China defeat arch rival Kitchee 3:1 in a league match. It was his first goal since he joined the Caroliners.

2010–11

Under coach Kim Pan-Gon, Man's playing opportunities were limited. But when Kim suddenly left South China near the end of 2010, replacement coach Chan Ho Yin allowed him more opportunities, especially at the right back position. In the 2011 AFC Cup, during the away game to Persipura Jayapura, Man handled the ball and gave away a penalty which was converted by Boaz Solossa. Persipura eventually won the game 4:2 and knocked South China out of the tournament.

International career

In the 2010 East Asian Football Championship semi-final tournament, Man scored the opening goal against Guam and paved the way for a 12:0 win, allowing Hong Kong to qualify for the finals of the tournament in Japan. In the 2011 AFC Asian Cup qualifying match away to Bahrain, Man was named captain. But Hong Kong lost the game 0:4.

Managerial career

On 10 July 2019, Man was named head coach of Pegasus. Less than a year into his reign, he was demoted back to director and assistant coach following Kwok Kar Lok's arrival as head coach.

Personal life

In June 2018, Man and his wife Alice welcomed their first child, a son.
