Goalkeeper saved win for United in emotional first home game since the death of Bobby Charlton.

ERIK TEN HAG praised goalkeeper Andre Onana for putting a difficult start to life at Manchester United behind him and saving the day in a narrow Champions League escape against Copenhagen.

The United keeper saved Jordan Larsson’s stoppage-time penalty with what proved to be the last touch of the match, ensuring Harry Maguire’s second-half header sealed a crucial 1-0 win. “You see there is a very good spirit in the dressing room,” said Ten Hag, who claimed not to have seen Alejandro Garnacho scuffing the penalty spot.“If we have setbacks, they support each other. I think that spirit is always needed to be a successful team.”

This was certainly a let-off for a United side who had the frequently-criticised Maguire to thank as well as Onana. “Very confident in the duels. I think he is dominating, in the right moment putting in the aggression and dominating his opponents.
