Andre Onana Faces Date With Destiny As Manchester United Chase Lyon Win

Published by Webster

Andre Onana faces a potentially make-or-break match for his Manchester United career against Lyon in the Europa League on Thursday as the English giants battle to keep their season alive. The Cameroon international goalkeeper made himself the main talking point ahead of the first leg of the quarter-final in France, which ended in a 2-2 draw, boldly claiming United were “way better” than their opponents. That prompted a salty reply from former United midfielder Nemanja Matic, now with Lyon, who labelled him “one of the worst goalkeepers in Manchester United’s history”. Onana was given a hostile reception by fans in France and his words came back to haunt him when he was at fault for both of the goals United conceded. United manager Ruben Amorim dropped him for Sunday’s trip to Newcastle, bringing in back-up goalkeeper Altay Bayindir, but the game ended in a 4-1 defeat, with the Turkey international at fault for the fourth goal. Amorim now has a potentially season-defining decision to make — does he bring Onana back in or …

Andre Onana hasn’t had the best of times at Manchester United. The pressure on United’s most expensive keeper was tremendous heading into the Europa League Quarter-final against Olympique Lyon. In a game that saw United fall behind, then take the lead and ultimately settle for a 2-2 draw, a significant proportion of the blame fell on Onana. The 29-year-old was to blame for both of the goals conceded by his side, one from a set piece and the other, in the dying moments of second half injury time. Ahead of the game, the United keeper and Lyon midfielder Nemanja Matic got into a battle of words, in which the latter said, “If you are one of the worst goalkeepers in Man United history, you need to take care what you are talking about”. This came in response to Onana’s claim that the Red Devils are “way better” than their Europa League opponents.

Nemanja Matic calls Andre Onana ‘one of the worst goalkeepers’ in Manchester United’s history

Former Manchester United midfielder Nemanja Matic has branded current United goalkeeper Andre Onana “one of the worst goalkeepers” in the English club’s history ahead of the Europa League match between Matic’s current team Lyon and United. Matic was responding to comments from Onana about how United is “way better” than Lyon. “I respect everyone but to say that you need to give an answer. If you are one of the worst goalkeepers in Man United history, you need to take care what you are talking about,” the 36-year-old Matic said. He had played for United from 2017-22 and left the 20-time English champions before Onana arrived from Inter Milan in 2023. “If David De Gea, Peter Schmeichel, (Edwin) van der Sar said that, I would question myself,” Matic added when asked about Onana’s comments. “But if you are one of statistically the worst goalkeepers in Man United’s modern history, then he needs to show that before he says. We will see.” Story continues below this ad Onana has now responded to the comments on his …

Eight-time Major winner Andre Agassi said that Novak Djokovic might find it difficult to emotionally given that his great rivals have now retired but warned not to right him off. At 37, Djokovic is at the business end of his career too, and has seen the retirements recently of Roger Federer, Rafael Nadal and Andy Murray – the once Big Four. Agassi cited the experience from his own career where he had to deal with the retirement of his great rival Pete Sampras. “He’s already done so much, so long, and it’s hard to imagine longer. I think he’ll run out of the energy for it more than the capability of it, I would imagine,” Agassi at an event in Bengaluru, according to PTI. “It cannot be easy, especially when the people you came to the dance with have left,” Agassi said. “When Pete (Sampras) retired, it was a blow to me. It set me back a little bit. It made me have to rediscover my inspirations on some level. And he’s (Djokovic) lost the …

C Andre Siddarth is all of 18, but he is seen as a special talent in Tamil Nadu cricketing circles. The six-foot three-inch tall bespectacled batsman has a reputation of dominating bowlers at age-group levels and his runs have come when the chips are down. He’s already made a name for hauling TN out of tricky situations in the Cooch Behar Trophy. A 140 when TN was reeling at 101/7 against Bihar and a 120 when his side was 80/4 against Chandigarh are examples. Yet in successive years he was not selected for India Under-19 squads. The latest snub was his exclusion when India Under-19 played their Australian counterparts at home. Siddarth was preparing for the CK Nayudu Trophy before the unexpected Ranji Trophy call-up arrived. For a boy blessed with a natural flair and temperament, the question was if he would be able to make the transition to First-Class cricket. And into the fourth round of Ranji Trophy, it is safe to say Siddarth has found his feet. After starting with an impressive 38 …
