In a crucial Premier League clash at St. Mary’s Stadium, Manchester United secured a commanding 3-0 victory over Southampton, with Andre Onana’s heroics proving pivotal.

The Cameroonian goalkeeper saved a penalty from Cameron Archer in the 34th minute, a moment that shifted the momentum dramatically in favor of the visitors.

Onana’s save came after Southampton had begun brightly, with teenager Tyler Dibling winning the penalty following a foul by Diogo Dalot. However, Onana’s sharp reflexes denied Archer’s weak attempt, allowing United to capitalize just two minutes later.

Matthijs de Ligt, who had endured a difficult international break, scored his first goal for the club by heading in a corner from Bruno Fernandes, immediately followed by Marcus Rashford, who ended his goal drought with a curling shot from outside the box.

Alejandro Garnacho capped off the performance with a late goal, following a red card for Southampton captain Jack Stephens. This victory not only lifted United to 10th position in the Premier League table but also eased the pressure on manager Erik ten Hag, who had faced scrutiny after a poor start to the season.

Onana’s clean sheet marked his second in the Premier League this season and fourth across all competitions, having also helped Cameroon secure wins in AFCON qualifiers against Namibia and a draw with Zimbabwe.

His performances have drawn praise, particularly from his Ugandan fans, who believe his time at the Mandela National Stadium brought him good fortune, especially after conceding three goals against Liverpool prior to the international break.

Looking ahead, United will face Barnsley and Crystal Palace in their next fixtures, with Onana’s form critical to their ambitions of climbing the league table.
