Fans unhappy as five things spoted from Man Utd’s unexpected 3-3 draw against Galatasaray

 

 

Manchester United is in danger of losing the Champions League after letting two-goal leads slip twice in an incredible 3-3 draw with Galatasaray.

The Red Devils’ goals came from Alejandro Garnacho, Bruno Fernandes, and Anthony Martial, but Andre Onana’s terrible mistake turned the tide of the match.

 

These are the five lessons we took away from the absurd encounter in Istanbul.

Garnacho is once more shows he is above the rest

Prior to his incredible overhead kick goal against Everton at Goodison Park, Garnacho had a quiet season. However, ever since that incredible moment, the Argentine has blossomed.

 

After Bruno Fernandes skillfully put the winger in, the 19-year-old took a touch and expertly blasted it past Fernando Muslera with his weaker left foot into the net’s roof.

It was a significant occasion for the winger, who now seems far more assured of his skills than he did a few weeks ago. Garnacho is having an immediate impact on games.

Bruno’s captain’s moment

Fernandes has received criticism this season for lack of performance in big games this season for the Red Devils and as captain, the scrutiny is even higher.

However, the Portuguese midfielder was fantastic on a night when the Red Devils really needed him and the former Sporting Lisbon star, at times, looked like he was dragging United through the tough encounter.

Fernandes picked the ball up in the pocket of space that caused the Turkish side such issues and unleashed a cannon right-footed strike effort past Muslera, the Uruguayan had no chance.

Antony’s best performance seen

Anthony a Manchester United player who was under pressure, perhaps more than any other was Brazilian winger was superb. The former Ajax forward had struggled to impact games for the Red Devils but tonight was different.

In a hostile atmosphere and a pitch that, at times, looked horrendous, the £84 million man finally showed why the Red Devils paid such a premium for the winger.

He skipped past Lucas Torreira with ease and the Uruguayan should have been booked for the Turkish side but wasn’t and Antony was involved in the vital third goal.

Onana struggles again in Champions League

Andre Onana gave off the impression of being the goalie that helped Inter Milan reach the Champions League final, but tonight the Cameroonian international put on a terrible performance.

The Cameroonian international was blind for the first goal, but maybe he might have done better. But the second one was terrible. Onana was having trouble handling it when Hakim Ziyech sent it into a tough location, so the 27-year-old palmed the ball into his own goal.

Though he had returned to his greatest form, the former Ajax goalie will never forget this evening.

United falls short of victory in another European match

When Scott McTominay slid in to put the visitors up 3-1, things appeared to be different, but this ended up being just another FC Copenhagen match.

It was paradise to lead Turkey by two goals twice. However, the Red Devils blew their lead, as seems to usually happen in the Champions League.

Erik ten Hag must be going crazy seeing his team lose games over and time again, but the Red Devils must pick themselves up and play Newcastle United again on Saturday night.
