Andre Onana left looking foolish after Champions League claim before Man Utd howler

Manchester United goalkeeper Andre Onana did opponents Bayern Munich a favour as Erik ten Hag’s side began their Champions League campaign with a defeat at the Allianz Arena

Andre Onana was made to eat his words after dropping a clanger as Manchester United lost to Bayern Munich.

The Cameroon international was at fault for Bayern’s opener at the Allianz Arena, letting a Leroy Sane effort squirm into the net. United got themselves on the scoresheet three times – with Rasmus Hojlund opening his account for the club – but the Bavarian side ran out 4-3 winners.

Before the game, United had talked up their chances against the top seeds in their group. Onana was particularly confident, which will have made the former Ajax man’s later struggles all the more painful to take.

“Champions League, I know the competition,” Onana told MUTV before the opener. The ‘keeper reached the semi-finals with Erik ten Hag’s Ajax in 2018-19, and followed it up by helping Internazionale reach the final in the 2022-23 edition.
