I’m gutted for #Onana one misjudged cross will likely make all the headlines but this 1v1 save was class.
He does so well to keep deep until #Salah gets close enough to goal that he can effect the ball & then he executes a lovely block which forces #Salah to “just hit it at him”

#McManaman showed his lack of understanding by saying “I’ve no idea why the GK goes back to then go forward again”
Historic 1v1 data shows #Onana was spot on.
He lured #Salah into the Engage & Block Zone so that when he rushed out he maximised the goal area he could cover!

If he had tried to engage earlier he could have potentially been rounded or beaten by a weak finish but he made sure that didn’t happen by backing off initially.

Another wonderful 1v1 save from #Onana!!
World class decision making on display again!
He stays deep & doesn’t engage as he backs his reactions will force #Firmino into a more difficult finish
This is absolutely spot on & he gets down fast & flicks the shot to safety!

I do find it odd how the BT pundits kept mentioning how poor #Onana’s decision making is & how he relies on athleticism as from what I’ve seen that’s so wrong he’s such an intelligent GK & these 2 1v1 saves highlight that & that’s not even mentioning his on the ball intelligence!
