The Cameroonian made a stunning double save which left Mourinho gobsmacked but it was another frustrating night in Europe for the Red Devils
Three Europa League games down and Manchester United have just three points to show for it after once again failing to make the most of taking an early lead in a 1-1 draw at Fenerbahce. Christian Eriksen fired Erik ten Hag's side in front after a quick break sparked by the excellent Manuel Ugarte, who produced a goal-saving tackle on Dusan Tadic.
Andre Onana quickly upstaged his team-mate with a truly magnificent display of goalkeeping, flying low to palm away a header from Youssef En-Nesyri and rising back up sharply to tip the striker's header away. The Moroccan, who scored twice against United for Sevilla two years ago, made amends to equalise early in the second half after slack defending from the visitors, particularly Victor Lindelof.
United's early promise faded and so did the game as a spectacle, with the best moment coming when Jose Mourinho was sent off for furiously appealing for a penalty against Ugarte which wasn't even close to being a foul. Ten Hag made four changes but couldn't get any spark out of his side, who are without a win in European competition for more than a year.
GOAL rates Man United's players from the Şükrü Saracoğlu Stadium…
AFPGoalkeeper & Defence
Andre Onana (7/10):
Made a jaw-dropping double save to thwart En-Nesyri, who got his revenge with the equaliser.
Diogo Dalot (5/10):
Only had one notable incursion into final third, when he botched his pass to Rashford.
Victor Lindelof (4/10):
Let En-Neysri drift in too easily and was ruthlessly taken off a few minutes later.
Matthjis de Ligt (5/10):
Good on the ball but lacked authority in his area.
Lisandro Martinez (5/10):
Made a couple of rash decisions but also made some good interventions.

Christian Eriksen (7/10):
Got his second Europa League goal with a thumping finish and his passing was spot on throughout.
Manuel Ugarte (8/10):
Impressively aggressive. Won the ball back from Fred for the goal then saved one down the other end with a brave tackle on Dusan Tadic.
Noussair Mazraoui (5/10):
Hit-and-miss in unusual No. 10 role before returning to left-back when Casemiro came on.

Marcus Rashford (6/10):
Started well before fading. Almost scored after a tremendous twisting run. Booked early for a for cynical foul on Sebastian Szymanski.
Joshua Zirkzee (4/10):
Played nice lay-off for Eriksen's goal but otherwise looked clumsy, over-playing key passes which should have led to clear chances. Hauled off in the 55th minute.
Alejandro Garnacho (6/10):
Drove team forward in build-up to the goal. Looked frustrated with Zirkzee for taking too long to pass to him. Tried to score himself but couldn't get enough power.
AFPSubs & Manager
Casemiro (6/10):
Played a defence-splitting pass which Dalot should have done more with.
Rasmus Hojlund (5/10):
Good movement but let down by his shooting.
Antony (5/10):
Did very little and then had to come up on a stretcher with a painful-looking injury.
Amad Diallo (N/A):
Replaced Antony in added time.
Erik ten Hag (4/10):
His side took the lead for the fourth time in a row away in Europe but each time they let it slip away. His decision not to start Hojlund made little sense, as did bringing on Antony before Amad. And what was Mazraoui doing in attacking midfield?!
