Man Utd fans are raving over 'incredible' Andre Onana performance despite conceding two goals

Andre Onana has more than impressed Manchester United fans in his debut performance against Real Madrid despite conceding two goals.

There was no clean sheet for the Red Devils’ new signing in his debut for the club, however, fans have been quick to rave about their new goalkeeper.

United fell 2-0 to Madrid, courtesy of two beautiful goals from Jude Bellingham and Joselu.

It took a bicycle kick and an audacious chip to get past Onana in his debut, however, United fans have taken the positives from the night.

The shot-stopper finished the game with 95 per cent passing accuracy, completing 39 of his 41 attempted passes.

It’s a far cry from times under former keeper David De Gea who often found himself caught out with the ball at his feet.

And United fans are delighted.

One wrote: “Nahh man Getting Onana for 55m was an absolute steal if you think about the massive upgrade we've got…”

Another said: “So impressed with that Onana's performance. Build-up, distribution, made some really good saves, and showed leadership qualities at the back. Absolutely excited for this top quality signing.”

Another commented: “Onana is just a breath of fresh air, looks so comfortable whenever he has got the ball, what a signing he is going to be for us.”

A fourth added: “Onana has affected us so much with his playing style that we thought it was him sweeping up when the invaders came in. I lost my senses for a sec.”

A fifth said: “Onana brings something totally different to this team, already know he’ll be amazing for us.”

Onana was caught off his line for the first Real Madrid goal, however, it certainly can be argued that it shouldn’t have stood in the first place.

Bellingham had strayed offside before chipping the 27-year-old, but with no VAR in play the goal stood.

It then took a brilliant acrobatic effort from Joselu to make it 2-0 for Real Madrid.

But despite conceding two goals, Onana will be pleased with the response to his performance.
