Onana criticised for his role during Coman's goalGoalkeeper was blamed for not closing down the angleFans hit out at Cameroonian on social mediaWHAT HAPPENED?
The French forward put a dagger in the hearts of the United faithful after he pierced the net in the 70th minute to send the Premier League giants packing from Europe on Tuesday evening. Erik ten Hag's side lost four of the six group stage games to finish bottom of the pool and miss out on a Europa League play-off spot.
Onana, who had a nervy start to his life in Manchester, was once again blamed for the goal as the Cameroonian did not come out of his line to narrow down the angle for Coman for the shot.

"Christ, Onana genuinely is dreadful," said one X user. "How does he, 1, almost fall over before Coman has taken his shot, and 2, stay on his line?"
A second fan added: "I don't want to keep digging out Onana, but why is it that the only time he comes off his line is when he's about to ping a ball 60 yards forward and that's it, he's literally standing there giving Coman the easiest finish he'll ever have."
While another added: "That is criminal positioning from Onana. Not even an attempt at closing down Coman."
GettyTHE BIGGER PICTURE
United snapped up Onana for £48 million ($61m) during the summer transfer window from Inter but the keeper has struggled to live up to expectations. Individual mistakes from the shot-stopper have cost United dearly throughout the season but Ten Hag continues to keep his faith in the 27-year-old. He was at fault for gifting two goals to Galatasaray during United’s 3-3 draw on Turkish soil, while also being at fault against Bayern in the reverse leg at Allianz Arena.
