Andre Onana Concedes Directly From Corner in Trabzonspor Loss
Former Manchester United goalkeeper Andre Onana made a costly error in Trabzonspor's Conference League defeat.
Former Manchester United goalkeeper Andre Onana conceded directly from a corner during Trabzonspor's Conference League match against Kuopion Palloseura on Thursday. Onana, who is on loan from Manchester United to the Turkish side, was unable to prevent the goal from crossing the line.
Trabzonspor had started the match positively, with Paul Onuachu scoring in the third minute. Former Liverpool forward Mohamed Salah then doubled their lead in the 44th minute with his eighth goal of the season. After Franculino Dju extended the lead to 3-0 early in the second half, Petteri Pennanen scored for the opposition.
It was during the opposition's subsequent corner that Onana conceded, a moment that saw him fall to the ground as his teammates walked away. The team conceded another goal before the match ended, with Trabzonspor losing 4-2.
Fans of Manchester United expressed their views on social media, with comments including "Do not miss this man, no matter how bad we are" and "Nice to see he is still an absolute liability."
Onana joined Manchester United in 2023 but lost his place and was subsequently loaned out. His wages are not being covered by Manchester United, and a permanent departure is anticipated in the near future.
Trabzonspor's season has included a Europa League play-off exit, leading them to the Conference League. The team is currently fifth in their domestic league standings after seven games, with four wins.
Onana has reportedly formed a friendship with Salah during their time in Turkey.
