    Man Utd fans say ‘Roy Keane would be proud’ at Onana’s five-word verdict on his penalty save against Copenhagen

    FANS believe Andre Onana’s calm verdict on his last-gasp penalty heroics will have won over even Roy Keane.Onana shrugged off a dodgy start to his Manchester United career with a stoppage-time save to preserve a vital 1-0 Champions League win over FC Copenhagen.
    Andre Onana played a straight bat when questioned on his crucial role, while Harry Maguire also played it cool after netting the only goal

    And Old Trafford legend Keane – famously hard to please as a pundit – might have beamed with delight if he’d heard the summer signing’s blunt response afterwards.
    United finally picked up group points at their third attempt.
    But questioned on keeping out Jordan Larsson’s spot-kick, the former Inter Milan star said: “I’m just doing my job.”
    The Cameroonian did add: “We have to keep going like that, never stop”.

    And that’s especially true in Europe as the Red Devils sit just third in Group A behind Bayern Munich and Galatasaray.
    One fan reacted on social media: “Roy Keane would be proud of that reply by Onana.”
    And despite a handful of goal-conceding errors early in his United career, another observer now claimed: “The best goalkeeper in English league.”
    Many supporters were equally delighted matchwinner Harry Maguire was the other surprise saviour.

    One fan posted: “Tell you what man, seeing Maguire and Onana have their night tonight is a much needed feel good story right now. Brilliant.”
    Another imagined how the duo motivated themselves.
    “Onana: They haven’t seen anything. Maguire: Let’s show them! Manchester United MVPs.” 
    “These two deserve all the love,” claimed another. More

    Rodrygo had given the 14-time European champions the lead after just 16 minutes.
    And Bellingham doubled the advantage on the hour mark when he found the bottom corner with a curling finish.
    That took his tally to 11 goals in 12 games for the Spanish giants since his summer arrival from Borussia Dortmund.
    And even though Alvaro Djalo pulled one back for Braga, Madrid held on in Group C.
    That result kept Carlo Ancelotti’s side in top spot with nine points from nine, three ahead of second-placed Napoli.
    The Italians moved second after Giacomo Raspadori secured them a 1-0 victory at Union Berlin.
    Tempers boiled over at the final whistle in Braga after several of the home players became embroiled in a row with Madrid defender Antonio Rudiger.
    Security intervened to escort the former Chelsea ace down the tunnel.
