Rio Ferdinand’s podcast ‘cursed’ Andre Onana, it has been claimed on social media, after the Manchester United goalkeeper suffered a nightmare night in the Champions League.

Onana made two costly mistakes allowing Galatasaray to recover twice from two-goal deficits to claim a 3-3 draw – that leaves Erik ten Hag’s side bottom of their group with one game left to play.

United have now conceded 14 goals in five Champions League games, with Onana making a number of mistakes even before the draw with Galatasaray.

Ferdinand asked for an apology to Onana on a VIBE with FIVE podcast earlier this week due to his domestic clean sheet record, but had to criticise him on Wednesday night after the costly draw away in Turkey.

Andre Onana made two costly mistakes in Manchester United’s draw with Galatasaray

Ferdinand defended Onana on his podcast this week due to his Premier League clean sheet record, but had to criticise the keeper following his costly mistakes against Galatasaray

The former England captain who was a pundit for TNT Sports last night, said: ‘I think that the keeper today has to hold his hands up and say ‘yes, I was at fault for a couple of goals,’ and he should do better.’

Earlier in the week on his podcast, he said: ‘Joint most clean sheets in the Premier League.’

Addressing one of his co-hosts, he said: ‘I want an apology now. Just say sorry to the camera now because Onana actually watches the show.’

United took a 2-0 lead after goals from Alejandro Garnacho and Bruno Fernandes, before pulling one back from a Hakim Ziyech free-kick. 

The Red Devils restored their advantage through Scott McTominay, but Galatasaray again pulled out back after Onana fumbled another Ziyech free-kick into the net. 

Onana’s positioning was also questionable for Galatasaray’s third goal, as he was beaten at his near post from a Muhammed Kerem Akturkoglu strike. 

Ten Hag refused to blame his keeper after the match, who was left visibly distraught after the final whistle. 

Man United legend Peter Schmeichel described Onana’s mistakes as ‘very, very expensive’  while TNT Sport pundits also hit out at the keeper.

Robbie Savage said it was a ‘bad error’ from Onana which led to their second goal while Paul Scholes and Owen Hargreaves were critical of the keeper for the Turkish’s side first strike. 

Speaking at half time about Ziyech’s first goal, Hargreaves said: ‘Onana can’t see because of the two players in front. He takes a step to the left when he probably shouldn’t. If he stays still, he probably saves it.’

Scholes added: ‘That step to the left has killed him and the goal has gone in.’

Onana’s pair of mistakes let Galatasaray back into the match and the hosts took full advantage as they drew level through substitute Kerem Akturkoglu in the 71st minute.
