MUNICH, Germany — André Onana says he was to blame for Manchester United‘s defeat at Bayern Munich, while admitting the start to his career at Old Trafford has been “not so good.”
Onana made a horrible error to gift Bayern the lead in the Allianz Arena when he let Leroy Sané‘s tame effort slip under his body. United eventually lost 4-3 to make it three straight defeats for Erik ten Hag’s side.

“We started very well and after my mistake we lost control of the game,” said Onana.
“It’s a difficult situation for me, I let the team down. It’s because of me we didn’t win this game. We have to move on, it’s the life of the goalkeeper.”
Onana has endured a difficult start to life at United following his £47 million move from Inter Milan in the summer.
The Cameroon goalkeeper has already been blamed for goals against Nottingham Forest, Arsenal and Brighton and on the eve of the game against Bayern admitted that replacing David de Gea “is something not easy.”
