Andre Onana’s stoppage time penalty save gives Man United vital Champions League win
Andre Onana saved a penalty in added time to give Manchester United victory against Copenhagen in the Champions League.
On an emotional night that began with a lone piper walking out playing the United anthem ‘We’ll Never Die’ as Old Trafford paid its respects to Sir Bobby Charlton, United fans thought Harry Maguire’s first goal since February 2022 had given them the win they craved.
But with the allotted four minutes of added time played, Scott McTominay conceded a penalty by swinging a high boot dangerously near Mohamed Elyounoussi’s face.
But Onana, who has come in for criticism since his £47m summer move from Inter Milan, turned Jordan Larsson’s effort wide with what turned out to be the very last action of the game.
It’s United first win in the Champions League this season after losing their opening two matches.
