Amorim supports Onana after costly errors vs Lyon

Manchester United's goalkeeper Andre Onana faced heavy criticism following his two critical mistakes in a 2-2 draw against Lyon in the Europa League quarter-finals. Despite the blunders, United's manager Ruben Amorim expressed confidence in Onana, stating that mistakes are part of football and highlighting the importance of focusing on improvement for the upcoming second leg. The match saw Lyon take an early lead through a free-kick that Onana failed to clear, while United equalized through Leny Yoro and Joshua Zirkzee, only for Lyon to level the score in stoppage time due to another error from Onana. The situation was further complicated by pre-match comments from former United midfielder Nemanja Matic, who had labeled Onana one of the worst goalkeepers in the club's history. Amorim emphasized the need for Onana to remain focused and improve, as the team aims to turn the tie around in the second leg at Old Trafford. Lyon's coach Paulo Fonseca, meanwhile, downplayed Matic's remarks as part of normal football banter.
