ANDRE ONANA hit back after Nemanja Matic called him “one of the worst goalkeepers in Man United’s history” by pointing to the Lyon midfielder’s trophyless time at Old Trafford in an explosive build-up to this evening’s Europa League quarter-final.

Ruben Amorim’s underperforming Red Devils head to the Parc Olympique Lyonnais for the first leg of this make-or-break clash knowing their season rests on progress against the French side.

Onana said after Sunday’s 0-0 Manchester derby draw against City at Old Trafford that overcoming Lyon, who sit fifth in Ligue 1, was “not going to be easy, but I think we are way better than them.”
