Manchester United secured a 1-0 win over FC Copenhagen on Tuesday in the Champions League, sparking the team’s hopes for qualification. Despite jeers at half-time, United persevered in the second half, with a crucial goal from Harry Maguire, who scored his first goal since February 2022.
This moment of redemption for Maguire was followed by a penalty save from goalkeeper Andre Onana in the final seconds of the game, which allowed United to preserve their lead.
The win was a crucial moment for United in Group A, where they had previously suffered two losses.
The win also marks significant moments for both Maguire and Onana, who have both faced criticism this season.
Maguire was stripped of his captaincy in the offseason and was rumored to be moving to West Ham before staying with United. Onana had also faced pressure for his style of play and distribution from the back.
The game took place at Old Trafford, which was the first match at the stadium since the death of club great Bobby Charlton on Saturday.

The evening began and ended with chants of “There’s only one Bobby Charlton” swirling around Old Trafford as fans paid their respects to one of England’s World Cup winners from 1966 who is widely considered United’s greatest player.
There were pre-match tributes to Charlton, including Ten Hag laying a wreath in the center circle before an impeccably observed minute’s silence.
Maguire spoke about the impact of Charlton’s death on the club and the dressing room, saying, “Losing someone like Sir Bobby, it affects the club and the dressing room. But really pleased we could get the win tonight”.
Maguire’s goal was a crucial moment of redemption for him, and he spoke about wanting to help the team and “get the club back to where it should be.” Similarly, Onana’s penalty save in the final seconds of the game was a moment of redemption for the goalkeeper, showing that he is capable of performing well under pressure.
The win was crucial for United’s hopes for qualification in the Champions League.
It was also a memorable night of remembrance for Charlton, turning into a night of redemption for Maguire and Onana. As the team moves forward in the competition, their newfound confidence and resilience could carry them far.
