anchester United goalie Andre Onana delivered a robust display in the Anfield limelight, aiding the team in securing a draw.

Andre Onana has delivered subpar performances in significant away matches this season, particularly against Bayern Munich and Galatasaray.

Concerns about the Manchester United goalkeeper's performance at Liverpool were understandable, given the pressure and intense crowd. However, Onana showcased a strong performance, admirably securing a clean sheet in their 0-0 draw at Anfield on Sunday.


Before the match, Andre Onana expressed that he hadn't turned into an ineffective goalkeeper suddenly and had confidence in his skills.


After the goalless draw, Onana posted on Instagram: “Maintaining a positive mindset—never too elated, never too down. Grateful to the away fans today.”


Legendary Manchester United goalkeeper Edwin van der Sar, Onana's former mentor at Ajax, acknowledged his post.



Onana progressed as the match unfolded. Andre Onana adopts an ideal mindset – he remains unaffected by excessive praise and undeterred by criticism.


It's noteworthy that Onana's display was highly promising, showcasing synchronization with his defensive counterparts.


In the initial minutes, this cohesion wasn't evident, as Onana appeared disoriented during a floated free-kick into the box. Fortunately, his defenders came to his rescue.

In the initial stages, Manchester United faced some tense moments as they committed to playing out from the back. Despite the pressure, Onana showcased impressive footwork, leaving Liverpool's attackers bewildered on multiple occasions. Phil Bardsley, speaking on MUTV, acknowledged the pressure but praised Onana's adept handling of it: "They put a lot of pressure on him passing out from the back; he dealt with it well."


Throughout the game, Onana made six crucial saves, with his standout performance coming in the second half. This display offers Manchester United fans a reason for optimism regarding Onana's goalkeeping prowess.
