Andre Onana requested a post-match interview at the end of the game where he took the blame for Manchester United ‘s defeat
Onana, who joined the club from Inter Milan for £47.2 million during the summer transfer window, made a huge error in his side’s 4-3 loss at the Allianz Arena on Wednesday.
He failed to stop Leroy Sane’s long-range strike as the German side took the lead. The Cameroonian keeper went onto concede three more goals as Man United open their Champions League campaign with a defeat. But, to his credit, he fronted up and spoke to TNT Sports following the result. He even requested an interview with CBS Sports to explain what happened.
Speaking to TNT Sports, he took full responsibility in a brutally honest post-match interview.
“It’s my responsibility, because of me we didn’t win — and I have to learn from it. I have a lot to prove, because to be honest my start in Man United is not so good, it was me who let the team down”.
Fronting is one thing. Too many players have shied away from responsibility but Onana let his team down with that. He’s got to deliver against Burnley.
