What Onana said
Speaking ahead of the game, the former Ajax goalie said, "We all know the importance of this game; we will go there with the winning mentality.”
“We have to go there and show who we are. If we are focused, stay compact and together, and follow the game plan we will be winning the game. Of course, it’s not going to be easy but I think we are way better than them.”

The Cameroonian has faced his fair share of criticism since replacing David de Gea as Manchester United’s first-choice goalkeeper. But the derision does not get to him, Onana said, as he remains focused on his job.
"It doesn’t affect me because the decision I make is to help the team. Sometimes I will make the right decision; sometimes I will make the wrong decision. When I feel my players need to rest, I have to take my time; when I feel we need to speed up the game, I will do it."
