Manchester United defeated FC Copenhagen in midweek largely thanks to a last-gasp Andre Onana save.
Peter Schmeichel told Andre Onana he was 'too humble' and a 'hero' for his sensational last-gasp penalty save to secure the win over FC Copenhagen.
With the full-time whistle seconds away, Scott McTominay carelessly swung at a loose ball in the box, caught an opposition player and gave away a penalty. A lengthy VAR check meant the game was three minutes over the allotted added time before the penalty was taken. It would be the last kick of the game.ALSO READ: Pep Guardiola has bruising Man City truth for new Man United investors
"You saved and made yourself a hero..." Schmeichel began to put to Onana before the Cameroon interjected "No I don't think so, I think the hero tonight is Harry. He scored a great goal for us, he gave us the victory today" "That's why I'm here, you know?" Onana replied. "They brought me here for this kind of moment. And for me to be here it's a privilege to be here with great players at this amazing club, I'm happy with the victory. We have to keep going, important game at the weekend so we have to get ready."
