Fans joke Onana tried to ‘LEVITATE’ to put off Awoniyi as Man Utd keeper is questioned for unusual technique before goal

MANCHESTER UNITED goalkeeper Andre Onana sustained ridicule on social media during the 3-2 win over Nottingham Forest.

Taiwo Awoniyi broke through United’s defence in midfield during a dangerous counter-attack and found himself in front of Onana inside the box.

Fans joked Onana tried to levitate to put Awoniyi off in a major blunder

But the Cameroonian lost his balance and fell backwards just before Awoniyi hit his bottom left corner to open the scoring just two minutes after kick-off.

And the 27-year-old’s error attracted some unwanted attention from fans on Twitter.

Some joked Onana was trying to levitate to put Awoniyi off and others laughed off United’s claims that he is David de Gea’s successor after spending £47million to sign him from Inter Milan this summer.

One fan tweeted: “Onana tried levitation to stop Awoniyi scoring…”

Another posted: “Onana is 𝓀𝒾𝓁𝓁ing me man.”

A third wrote: “Bro said, ‘It’s time to rest’.”

This fan said: “Bro was doing yoga.”

And that one commented: “‘De Gea upgrade’.”

Things got worse for United two minutes later as Willy Boly doubled Forest’s lead.

However, Christian Eriksen got the Red Devils on the scoreboard in the 17th minute.

Casemiro then equalised on 52 minutes and Bruno Fernandes turned things around from the penalty spot after 76 minutes to complete a dramatic 3-2 win.
