Man Utd fans can't believe what Andre Onana did immediately after Harry Maguire completed stunning comeback vs Lyon

'The worst goalkeeper of Man Utd history' made his point at the end of torrid Europa League quarter-final

Manchester United's Europa League quarter-final tie against Lyon was quite the rollercoaster for goalkeeper Andre Onana.

Man Utd completed a sensational comeback in extra time in the second leg at Old Trafford and Onana had the last laugh after being labelled 'the worst goalkeeper of Man Utd history' before the first leg.

United had a 4-2 aggregate lead thanks to two goals at Old Trafford but Lyon drew their quarter-final tie level with goals just seven minutes apart from Corentin Tolisso and Nicolas Tagliafico.

Lyon took the tie to extra time but played the additional 30 minutes with ten men. Tolisso was sent off for a second bookable offence with just one minute of normal time remaining.

What followed was almost disaster from a Man Utd point of view.

Despite being a man down, Lyon made it 4-2 on the night with goals either side of half time in extra time, first a crisp strike into the bottom corner from the dangerous Rayan Cherki and then a penalty from Alexandre Lacazette.

Ruben Amorim's men started to claw their way back with six minutes of extra time remaining and a Bruno Fernandes penalty was followed by two goals in a minute from Kobbie Mainoo and Harry Maguire.

Immediately after Maguire's sumptuous winning header in the first minute of time added on, Onana suffered a harrowing bout of cramp.

Although the condition is known to affect footballers whose team have the lead late in long European ties particularly viciously, goalkeepers are less susceptible than the team average and Onana's affliction caught the eye of fans on social media.

"Got a cramp afterwards, dances too much that Onana," parped one user on X, formerly Twitter.

Another posted that, "Onana going down with cramp sums that game up."

'Faked'

"Onana kills me bruh," chuckled one happy fan before making an outrageous accusation. "Went to celebrate a goal and on his way back faked a cramp."

"Onana celebrating like only a man who's conceded 4 goals can and then getting cramp," wrote another user.

"Onana has a cramp for what??????" asked one poster on X before another unwittingly provided the answer amid a torrent of emoji: "Onana got cramp from celebrating."

The under-fire goalkeeper quickly recovered and United move on to face Athletic Bilbao in the Europa League semi-final next month.
