Andre Onana: Manchester United Take Immediate Decision Amid Goalkeeping Errors

• Andre Onana had a day to remember following his howler in Manchester United's 1-3 loss to Brighton in the Premier League
• The Cameroonian international was not at his best in the encounter, with many also criticising his recent performances for the club
• Manchester United have immediately taken action as new goalkeeper signing Hubert Graczyk gets promoted to the first team

English Premier League club Manchester United have promoted new signing Hubert Graczyk to first-team amid inexplicable errors from Andre Onana.

The Red Devils were outplayed at Old Trafford by rampaging Brighton in what could be described as a one-sided affair.

Ruben Amorim's men's performance was miserable. They were beaten 1-3 after visiting winger Yankuba Minteh scored one goal and created another.

The hosts also gifted the visiting team the icing on the cake courtesy of a howler from goalkeeper Onana.

Midway through the first half, United were rewarded with a penalty, and Bruno Fernandes made no mistake from the spot to make it 1-1.

Joao Pedro thought he had restored the visitors' lead in the 53rd minute, but VAR chalked the goal off after an infringement was spotted.

On the hour mark, Brighton restored their lead courtesy of a Kaoru Mitoma finish, and then it went from bad to worse after Onana spilt a routine gather from a low cross into the box, allowing Rutter to tap home the loose ball as it ended 1-3.

The victory took Brighton to ninth place on the Premier League standings, with 34 points, four points off the top four. United are 13th on 26 also from 22 games.
