3 shots, 3 goals conceded, 0 saves!Manchester United goalkeeper Africa Cup of Nations into a decoration Passing mistakes and complaining about teammates
In the early morning of January 20, Beijing time, a key battle was staged in the second round of the group stage of the Africa Cup of Nations, and the Senegal team led by Mane defeated the African Lions Cameroon 3-1 to win two consecutive victories and qualify in advance. Manchester United goalkeeper Onana started the game but made no saves in the game. Senegal's 3 shots on target were all converted into goals, making Onana an out-and-out "shot on target" king.
Onana was scheduled to come off the bench for the first leg of the Africa Cup of Nations group stage, but was unable to make the squad for the tournament due to flight delays. Onana was expected to start against Senegal, the strongest opponents in the group stage, but his performance was disappointing. In the opening 16 minutes, Onana failed to get the ball wide in a scuffle in the box, and Ismaila Sarr deflected home, but Onana did not react to the shot. In the 71st minute of the second half, Ismaila Sarr assisted Diallo to score an empty goal, and Onana, who was defending the front point, could only watch the ball go into the net. In the 83rd minute, Castellto scored with a header to make it 1-2. However, Sadio Mane's low shot in the fifth minute of stoppage time gave Senegal a 3-1 victory.
In this game, both sides did not have many offensive opportunities, and each only had 5 shots on goal. However, Senegal scored with all three shots on target, while Cameroon goalkeeper Onana played the full 90 minutes and made a piercing "0" in the number of saves. Of course, Edouard Mendy across from him didn't make a successful save, but the bad guy was the winner. And Onana, the king of shots on target, is a proper on-field decoration.
However, the poor performance did not affect Onana's temper. In the third minute of the first half, Senegal attacked, Cameroon's No. 21 central defender Castelretto chose to pass back to the goalkeeper under the opponent's pressure, but Onana, who has always been known for his goalkeeper with the ball, kicked the ball out of the line without being pressed. What's even more puzzling is that after his own mistake on the ball, Onana angrily blamed left-back Tolo, to the effect that he didn't catch his pass. This non-stick style is still eye-catching.
After this campaign, Cameroon ranked third in the group with only one point from two games, and a goal difference of two minus, and in the final round, they must beat the vice-captain Gambia, and at the same time hope that Senegal will beat Guinea to have a glimmer of hope of qualifying. But this is obviously not easy.
Statistics show that in the five months since joining Manchester United, Onana has conceded a full 50 goals in official matches, including 29 goals in 21 Premier League games, 15 goals in 6 Champions League games, 3 goals in 2 League Cup games, 3 goals in 1 Africa Cup of Cups, and the only game that did not concede a goal was the English FA Cup, but only played 1 game, and the opponent was Wigan Athletic, which ranked 18th in League One. Therefore, it is incomprehensible how Inter Milan sold Onana for 50 million euros at the highest point, and how Manchester United was willing to become the wronged leader.
