‘PART OF FOOTBALL’ – Andre Onana Reacts to Joshua Zirkzee’s Costly Touch That Denied Man Utd a Crucial Goal, Highlighting Valuable Lessons from the Brighton Loss
The custodian for Manchester United, Andre Onana, said that the team’s goal is “to win everything,” even though they lost 2-1 to Brighton on Saturday. The Cameroonian is “still positive” that Erik ten Hag’s team can have a good season.
After Amad Diallo tied the game in the second half, Danny Welbeck and Joao Pedro scored goals to send the Red Devils to their first loss of the season at the Amex.
United had high hopes for this season after adding several big names, including Leny Yoro, Joshua Zirkzee, and Matthijs de Ligt, to start a new era under new managers Omar Berrada and Dan Ashworth. A win at home against Fulham in the first game looked like a great start.
After a tough season last year, United is once again being watched closely. When asked about the club’s goals for this season, Onana decided to stay positive.
He answered when asked what United’s goal was this season, “To win everything.” This shirt means a lot to us, so we have to win every title we play for. This is one of the biggest clubs in the world.
In addition to talking about the game, Onana said that the United players were having a hard time accepting that they lost. “It’s hard for us to accept because we had a good game and more chances than them,” he said. Even though things are hard, we’re still hopeful. The game is the second of the season, and we have big names. This season we have a lot of big goals, so we stay very upbeat.
“We came here to win, but we didn’t luck out.” I don’t want to talk about mistakes because everyone wins and loses. Our big game next week is coming up, and we need to win it.
“In bad times, we have to be together, so we can only be positive.” Along with watching the movies, we will be here. Without a question, we’re here to win and learn from our mistakes.
United will face Arne Slot’s Liverpool at Old Trafford in their next game before the international break. Ten Hag knows that his team needs to improve their defense after a bad performance.
The Dutchman said both of United’s goals were “soft” and “avoidable,” and he was upset that they didn’t make their control count.
