Manchester United goalkeeper Andre Onana: I let the team down in Bayern Munich loss

Devastated goalkeeper Andre Onana said he let the team down with his costly mistake at the start of Manchester United's Champions League loss to Bayern Munich.

Erik ten Hag’s side suffered a fourth loss in five matches as a bright start in Bavaria went up in smoke with the summer signing somehow letting a Leroy Sane shot squirm home.

Bayern quickly added a second through Serge Gnabry and never relinquished control of the Group A opener, with Harry Kane scoring a penalty straight after Rasmus Hojlund had pulled one back after half-time.

Casemiro scored either side of Mathys Tel’s stoppage-time strike in a dramatic conclusion to a 4-3 defeat that glum Onana took responsibility for.

"It’s difficult," the Cameroon international said. "It’s difficult to lose this way because I think in the beginning we started very good and after my mistake we lost control of the game.

"It’s a difficult situation for us, for me especially because I’m the one who let the team down. But the team were good, very good, but because of me we didn’t win the game.

"I am happy for the work of the team and we just have to move on. This is life of the goalkeeper and if we didn’t win today it’s because of me."

Onana requested to face the media after the game and was clearly cut up about his error in the first half, which he said was "the key point" in the loss.

"I have to learn from it and be strong, move on," the former Inter Milan player told TNT Sports.

"It’s not an easy situation but I’m very happy for the comeback of the team. We were fighting until the end, but I have to recognise because of me we didn’t win.

"I have a lot to prove because, to be honest, my start in Manchester is not so good, not how I want.

"Play how I play today is one of my worst games and
