It’s a big disappointment – Manchester United goalkeeper Andre Onana after draw against Fenerbahce

Manchester United goalkeeper Andre Onana admitted that it was a big disappointment after a 1-1 draw against ​​Fenerbahce on Thursday. Christian Eriksen was able to put the Red Devils in front in the 15th minute but Youssef En-Nesyri equalized for the home team in the 49th minute.

United have drawn all of their three Europa League matches and they are in 21st place in the standings.

“It is a big disappointment for me and the fans, for the club, as a Manchester United player you have an obligation to try to win,” Onana told TNT Sports. “We didn’t win, but at least we didn’t lose, Not happy of course, but we move on, take responsibility and go again.

“We conceded an early goal in the second half, we had to show character and I think that is what we did. We didn’t win but I thought we were better than them.”

On the other hand, head coach Erik Ten Hag was keen to take the positives out of the match and wants his players to carry the confidence in their next match against West Ham.

“We’ve shown we are a team which is hard to beat,” said the Dutchman. “We can take confidence and take it into the game against West Ham.

“We have to win and we came in the position to win. We created the chances but we have to be killing more. We let the opponent get away with a point.”

Meanwhile, winger Antony suffered an injury after coming on as a substitute for Marcus Rashford. The Brazilian was taken off on a stretcher and the Dutchman is hopeful that the injury is not too serious.

“His training performances are that good that he deserved to come on,” Ten Hag said. “When you have to come off so quickly, that is really sad to see. Hopefully, it’s not too bad, we have to wait 24 hours for what the assessment is.”

Manchester United will next take on West Ham on Sunday at the London Stadium.
