No one can blame goalkeeper Andre Onana’s superb performance this morning.
Andre Onana is one of the positions that people are most worried about when Man Utd marches to Anfield. This goalkeeper made 7 errors in the Champions League group stage.
Luckily for Man Utd, this morning, Onana played soberly. He is always calm in foot play situations to launch attacks.
When necessary, it is this goalkeeper who asks his teammates to play slowly to avoid being caught up in Liverpool’s fast playing style. The away team completed their goal of leaving with 1 point after receiving 34 shots from Liverpool players.
Professionally, this was Onana’s best performance since arriving in England, with 8 excellent saves.
.
According to Sofascore statistics, Onana received 1.44 shots with an expected goal, but he successfully blocked them all.
Remember, the last time they were guests at Anfield, Erik Ten Hag and his team received 7 goals.
.
Regarding Onana, the Cameroonian goalkeeper is Man United’s most successful passer in 90 minutes at Anfield, with 30 times sending the ball to the right address.
Onana even had a very accurate counter-attack pass to give Antony the ball very conveniently in the final minutes of the match, but the Brazilian player, as usual, handled it inaccurately, causing the opportunity to unfortunately pass by.
In an interview after the match, when asked about the atmosphere at Anfield, Onana said: “I feel nothing, it’s good to have a clean sheet, but the most important thing is to win the match. When you are part of this huge club, it’s Man United… you have to win”.
Onana’s appearance in goal clearly made a difference. Onana even showed his improvement compared to the beginning of the season in his ability to enter and exit.
It’s hard to believe that Liverpool, the team that scored 36 goals in the previous 16 rounds, couldn’t score against Man Utd.
1 point at Anfield helps Man Utd only 6 points behind the top four and can completely think about qualifying for the Champions League if they play well in the second half of the season.
