Europa League: Andre Onana Blunder Costs Manchester United As Wasteful Tottenham Draw

europa league andre onana blunder costs manchester united as wasteful tottenham draw

Manchester United conceded in stoppage time to draw 2-2 away to Lyon on a bad night for goalkeeper Andre Onana in the first leg of their Europa League quarter-final on Thursday, while Tottenham Hotspur drew 1-1 with Eintracht Frankfurt and Rangers held Athletic Bilbao.

The build-up to United's game in France had been dominated by a pre-match spat between Onana and Lyon's Nemanja Matic , who formerly played for the Old Trafford club.

Matic described Onana as 'one of the worst goalkeepers' in United's history, and the Cameroon international was at fault for both goals his team conceded on the night.

Thiago Almada's free-kick delivery evaded everyone and beat Onana to find the net and put Lyon in front on 26 minutes.

The visitors were level in first-half stoppage time when Manuel Ugarte hooked the ball back into the Lyon box after goalkeeper Lucas Perri punched away a Bruno Fernandes free-kick, and French defender Leny Yoro glanced home his first United goal.
