Amorim to bring Onana back into Man Utd squad to face Lyon

RUBEN AMORIM has confirmed Andre Onana will get the chance to make amends for last week’s mistakes as the Manchester United goalkeeper returns to the starting line-up for tomorrow’s key Europa League quarter-final against Lyon.

The 29-year-old was labelled “one of the worst goalkeepers in Manchester United’s history” by Nemanja Matic before the first leg as the Lyon midfielder reacted furiously to the stopper saying the Premier League team were “way better” than the French club.

Onana did little to quell such talk as he floundered on a hostile evening in France, where he all too easily allowed Thiago Almada’s free-kick to creep in before his stoppage-time parry allowed Rayan Cherki to make it 2-2.
