After two defeats (to Bayern Munich 3:4 and to Galatasaray Istanbul 2:3), Manchester would have finally won the Champions League and was the favorite in the confrontation with the Copenhagen team. However, the Danish side will not go down without a fight at Old Trafford.
Indeed, in the third minute, the visitors sent a warning to the Red Devils, when Elias Achouri shot the ball accurately from a long distance and Andre Onana blocked the ball into the corner.
A moment later, after a quick move by Jacob Nystrup’s players, Diogo Goncalves hit the post from a few meters away.

Later, the situation on the field calmed down, and the top-ranked Manchester United was unable to threaten the goal guarded by Grabara, so the first half of the match ended in a goalless draw.
After changing sides, the goalkeepers on both teams had more work to do. First, Onana made a fine intervention after Lukas Lerager’s shot, and less than 120 seconds later, the ball was brilliantly blocked by Camil Grabara, who tried to surprise Christian Eriksen.
Although Eriksen did not score a goal, he assisted Harry Maguire’s header in the 72nd minute. The Dane then sent an accurate cross from the right side of the penalty area.
Manchester United could have advanced further, but Camil Grabara won two singles matches with substitute Alejandro Garnacho.
The Red Devils could not win this confrontation, but in stoppage time, Andre Onana saved a penalty kick awarded due to a foul on Scott McTominay, executed by Jordan Larson, and became the hero for his team.
