In a scarcely credible tale of hubris André Onana was Manchester United’s culprit, committing two howlers that cast the goalkeeper as a mug and Nemanja Matic as a seer.
In the buildup to this match, Matic branded Onana one of United’s poorest-ever keepers when responding to the 29-year-old’s claim that United were better than Lyon. The tit-for-tat closed with Onana’s dig that he had won trophies at United – unlike Matic in his five years at the club – before a nightmarish evening ended with another error, this time for the hosts’ equaliser.
