The „Manchester United“ footballers Harry Maguire and Andre Onana became heroes of the team on Tuesday after receiving a lot of criticism lately.

H. Maguire scored the only winning goal for the team, while A. Onana saved the last-minute penalty in the UEFA Champions League match against „Copenhagen“.

After the victory, former „Man Utd“ captain admitted that the „Red Devils“ did not play well in the first half, but he was happy with the change after the break.

„We didn't play well in the first half. That was emphasized during the break and in the second half we were much better.

In the goal situation, Eriksen made a wonderful pass. The opponents dealt well with high balls throughout the game, but in that episode I managed to outsmart the opponent.

„Copenhagen“ had their chance at the end, but I was very surprised by the referee's decision. It was a very soft penalty. I even have doubts whether McTominay actually touched the opponent.

The saved penalty was very important for Onana, who deserved such a moment&aquo;, said H. Maguire.

The English national team player also talked about the tough period in recent years within the „Man Utd“ ranks.

„I am very happy that I can help this team achieve victories. The recent years have not been easy, but I have always remained professional.

Throughout my career, I have been used to constantly competing, so this period has been truly unusual. However, it is impossible to avoid when playing for such a huge club“, added H. Maguire.
