Yoro struggles to hide his frustration with Andre Onana after Lyon display

Leny Yoro expressed his frustration after Man United had admitted a 95th minute equalizer against Lyon in the Europa League.

The Red Devils took the French side in the first stage of their quarter-final draw on Thursday evening, where Yoro canceled the opener of Thiago Almada who came after an Andre Onana error.

The 88th minute strike by Joshua Zirkzee seemed to have achieved an essential victory in front of Ruben Amorim on the way to next week's second stage, but Rayan Cherki tapped a last-gas chair after Onana had spilled the shot of Georges Mikautadze.

The disastrous game of Onana came after he had been involved in a word war with former man United – and now Lyon – midfielder Nemanja Matic in the structure of the collision.

Matic had made an exception to Onana who claimed that Lyon is a 'very good team', but that 'I think we are better than she', where the Shot stopper 'one of the worst keepers in the man of the man United is branded'.

And, after the performance of Onana, Yoro struggled to hide his frustration, especially with the second mistake.

“I think this is the worst time to admit such a goal,” he told TNT Sports.

'We won 2-1, I think this was a good score, but we are going with a draw and we try to win the game at home.

'We have defended very well, but they are a good team, [have] A good striker, so we have to be ready for everything, but unfortunately we admit the goal. '

In the run -up to the game, Onana's Word War went through with Matic when he placed on social media: 'I would never be disrespectful for another club. We know that tomorrow will be a difficult game against a strong opponent. We focus on preparing a performance to make our fans proud.

'At least I have lifted trophies with the largest club in the world. Some cannot say the same. '

And Paul Scholes, speaking on TNT-Sport, was critical of Onana and claimed that the Cameroonian stop would regret his pre-match actions.

“He probably wishes him to keep his mouth shut, the (the first goal) is a really bad mistake,” he said. 'Farable ball inside, he comes over the outpost, Yoro plays him.

“I'm not sure what the keeper is trying to do, the ball bounces right in front of him, it's a terrible mistake.”

With the second mistake, he called Grandpa Grandpa to have softer hands, suggesting that United may have to go on the market in the summer for a new keeper.

'A keeper is something to think about, but in terms of budget, where are the priorities? Can they get away with it? A keeper is a very important part of a team, but he has not been pretty good enough, maybe he needs some competition.

“It will come to money. He may think that he needs attackers and midfielders and tries to survive.

“He is capable of … at Inter he was good, he was good with his feet and that didn't happen completely. It's not great. [There are] Many problems for Amorim and he knows that. '

Amorim, however, refused to criticize Onana after the game and confirmed his faith in him again.

“If you look at the season, I have made more mistakes than them during these last games and during these last months,” he said.

'There is nothing that I can say to Andre at the moment that he will help him, so the most important thing is to be natural and when the time comes, I will choose the best XI to play. But I really have faith in Andre. '

In the meantime, Yoro's first half equalizer was his first goal for United since his £ 52 million summer movement from Lille and he admitted that the performance still had to sink.

“I didn't enjoy too much,” he added. 'Not a party because it is normal, we want to win. No time to party.

'Really happy to score my first goal. We don't have the victory, but it's okay. To be honest, it was very fast, I don't even think about anything, I just put my head, try to score. '
