Andre Onana produced a heroic moment in stoppage time as he saved a penalty to deny Copenhagen a goal as Manchester United secured a huge win in the Champions League.

Scott McTominay conceded a penalty deep into stoppage time as second-half substitute Jordan Larsson stepped up.

But his effort from the spot was stopped by Onana, who delivered the biggest moment of his Man United career thus far.

The Cameroonian goalkeeper, who has come under fire following his mistakes against Bayern Munich and Galatasaray, redeemed himself as he performed a great save to deny Copenhagen an equaliser.

In the aftermath, Alejandro Garnacho could be seen scuffing up the penalty spot prior to Copenhagen's penalty.

The 19-year-old, who entered the fray in the second-half, scraped the spot as VAR reviewed the penalty incident.



Harry Maguire's header in the 72nd minute proved to be the match winner as Man United claim their first points in the Champions League.

On his penalty save, Onana said: "Just doing my job."

He added: "We are Manchester United, a very big club, I have no doubt we'll make it [out of the Champions League group]."

The Red Devils have three points in Group A and are one point behind second-placed Galatasaray, who lost 3-1 to Bayern Munich.
