The Cameroon international who had faced criticism over both goals conceded in the first-leg against Lyon, though was only credited with one \u2018error leading to a goal\u2019, according to Opta.<\/p>\n<p>Asked about his selection in goal for Thursday\u2019s game at Old Trafford, Amorim said: \u201cOnana will play tomorrow.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI just think first of all as a coach and also as a former player, I try to do things that help a player in this situation,\u201d he added. \u201cSometimes we talk about managing players physically, but we also have to do it mentally. But they also have to return to competition. This week my thinking was to put Onana to play.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Altay Bayindir replaced Onana against Newcastle, making his first Premier League start for United since joining from Fenerbahce in the summer of 2023. However, the 27-year-old was at fault for Newcastle\u2019s fourth goal after his pass was intercepted by Joelinton, who set up Bruno Guimaraes to score.<\/p>\n<p>Bayindir has been sparingly used at United, with Onana often selected to start cup and European games ahead of the Turkey international. He has only featured eight times for United, keeping two clean sheets, but did earn plaudits for his performance against Arsenal in the FA Cup in January, when he saved one penalty in normal time and one in the shootout as his side progressed.<\/p>\n<p>The Newcastle game, meanwhile, was the first league fixture Onana had missed since his move to Old Trafford from Inter nearly two years ago. The 29-year-old has kept 23 clean sheets in his 94 appearances across all competitions.<\/p>\n<p>United had gone behind against Lyon last Thursday after Thiago Almada\u2019s in-swinging deep free kick bypassed everyone and was palmed in by Onana. A goal in just before half-time from Leny Yoro and then one in the 88th minute from Joshua Zirkzee had United in front, before Rayan Cherki followed up a save from Onana to equalise in second-half stoppage time.<\/p>\n<p>Unbeaten United are 15th in the Premier League, 17 points behind fifth-placed Manchester City and have all their hopes in the Europa Europa League as their way back into the group stage of the Champions League next season.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Awambeng Fuh\u00a0 Football Writer,kick442.com-Cameroon Manchester United manager Ruben Amorim has confirmed Andre Onana&hellip;<\/p>","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":22209,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[39,218,37,5],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-22208","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-african-football","category-cameroon-football","category-fecafoot","category-football"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.1.1 -
