Four Man Utd stars make feelings clear after Andre Onana howler in Brighton defeat

Andre Onana cost Manchester United another goal during their Premier League match against Brighton when he spilled a tame cross right at the feet of Georginio Rutter

Manchester United goalkeeper Andre Onana was guilty of another error in Sunday's match against Brighton, and his team-mates weren't able to hide their feelings.

There didn't seem to be a great deal of danger when Yasin Ayari swung in a hopeful low ball from the right. Onana made a hash of it, though, spilling the ball at the feet of Georgino Rutter, who took a touch and found the empty net.

Diogo Dalot and Matthijs de Ligt both fell to the floor after witnessing Onana's howler. Fernandes and Noussair Mazraoui could also scarcely believe what they'd seen, with both men putting their heads in their hands.

"An awful mistake from Andre Onana," Former United striker Dion Dublin said on BBC Radio 5 Live. "He will not want to look at this. He has no players around him. There is no danger! Just gather it and take it in. Deary me!"

United's defeat came despite Brighton seeing a goal chalked off at 1-1. Joao Pedro thought he had fired his team in front, but a VAR check found Jan Paul van Hecke to have fouled Dalot moments earlier.
