At Old Trafford, he becomes a phenomenon and receives praise from Cristiano Ronaldo: “I liked it”

Francis Uzoho he’s a good goalkeeper, he’s the Nigeria starter, but today he was picked up by Aaron Lennon in Manchester United-Omonia Nicosia of the Europa League. And Uzuho outdid himself. An incredible match in which Uzoho, who during the match seemed insurmountable and only at 92′ suffered the McTominay’s goal who decided the game. A net that doesn’t particularly burn you. Because it was an important night, it won applause and praise from CR7.

Uzoho entered the field Old Trafford. The goalkeeper defended Omonia’s posts and became a great protagonist during the match. Manchester attacked from the first minute and scored 34 shots on goal! A monstrous number. It means a shot in the mirror every two and a half minutes. A prodigious game for Uzoho who made twelve saves, at the end of the first half he made two in a few seconds. One better than the other.

United fans on social media compared him to buffon AND Neuer. Practically an unsurpassed goalkeeper. Cristiano Ronaldo also noticed at his expense, that he made seven shots for Uzoho’s goal and did not pass. At one point, the Portuguese approached the goalkeeper and congratulated him. They both smile, it’s a wonderful scene.

Omonia Nicosia has lost all of its games and will hardly have a chance to be ‘relegated’ to the Conference League. But Old Trafford is not played every day. Uzoho knows very well, gives his best, exalts himself, surpasses himself and is not surpassed by the players of the Manchester United until the 93′ when McTominay makes a good move, opens space and passes the Norwegian goalkeeper, who is regretful, but not desperate.

Because at the end of the game the smile doesn’t lose it. To the microphones of English TV, the Nigerian number one confesses his support for Manchester and above all his joy for a night he will never forget: “A dream for me. I’m also a Manchester United fan”, and sarcastically said: “I had a great time tonight.”
