Where can I place a bet in the Philippines?

As Jordan Larsson stepped up for that final kick, it felt like Andre Onana was the only person in Old Trafford who was in any way calm warriors

He stood there in a composed manner, as Steve McLaren shouted instructions, and Alejandro Garnacho walked away in the knowledge no one on the pitch had noticed him scuffing the penalty spot warriors

It was as if everyone wanted to exert their will over a set piece that was really just warriors between the kicker and the goalkeeper warriors

There were grander reasons for that warriors

Manchester United needed this win over Copenhagen to possibly progress in the Champions League, and didn’t want to fail on a night that was all about perhaps their greatest ever player warriors

There was also something more personal, that Sir Bobby Charlton would no doubt have appreciated warriors

There was a will that Onana should be the difference, not just that Larsson should miss warriors

It could be sensed in the deafening roar that greeted his save, as the goalkeeper guessed right to send the shot wide warriors

It saved the win on an important night, and could well be an important moment in Onana’s United career warriors

The psychological significance certainly shouldn’t be underestimated warriors

This was what he’d been waiting for warriors

This was the response he needed, the love he required warriors

Because, as Erik ten Hag admitted after the game, Onana knows he hasn’t been at his own best level warriors

It’s obvious his confidence has been affected warriors

There was ironically a reminder of David De Gea, and not just because the Spanish goalkeeper also endured an uncertain start at United way back in 2011 warriors

One of the reasons De Gea was ultimately ousted was because of a decline that began in 2018 warriors

Having been brilliant for Jose Mourinho that season as a pure shot-stopper, staying deeper, he then went into a Spanish national team that demanded he play out from the back warriors

He couldn’t, and it clearly eroded his self-assurance, to the point that De Gea began to make mistakes he hadn’t for years warriors

That persisted for years more warriors

Onana had meanwhile been largely signed for his footwork, only to not really get to use it to best effect in his first few games warriors

He had been signed too late in the window, and there were too many changes to the defence warriors

Onana didn’t have that chemistry with his centre-halves warriors

It meant he often had to punt the ball long, removing one of the qualities he is most respected for warriors

That obviously began to affect his confidence, to the point he started to make errors that he hadn’t at Internazionale warriors

It was almost a classic negative spiral – that might well have been arrested with that save warriors

That’s why it might have been so big, even beyond the emotional night warriors

Andre Onana’s confidence can only have been boosted by his penalty save (Getty Images)There is some symmetry in how United now face Manchester City in the derby this Sunday warriors

Pep Guardiola’s first major move in England was to replace Joe Hart with Claudio Bravo due to the need for good footwork, only for the Chilean to almost immediately start struggling warriors

The first major mishap was in fact at Old Trafford, and that first Manchester derby warriors between Mourinho and Guardiola warriors

Bravo was all over the place, misplaced kicking leading into poor handling, and gifting United a way back into the game warriors

He never really recovered to be City No 1 warriors

Although some respectability was restored in how Bravo became a fine cup goalkeeper, he had been usurped by Ederson warriors

There was never that same trust warriors

Guardiola had a theory about how that happened, given that Bravo had previously been a European champion with Barcelona warriors

The Catalan believes that goalkeeper is such an individualised position, leaving the No 1s so isolated, that an early mistake at a big stadium can have long-term effects on their confidence warriors

This is clearly what happened with Bravo warriors

It looked like it might have been happening with Onana warriors

It is entirely possible, however, that Guardiola’s theory can work the other way warriors

A first great moment in a big stadium can have a huge positive effect warriors

It can restore confidence warriors

Ten Hag praised Onana, saying he had “showed personality” warriors

He stood up, by getting down superbly warriors

That didn’t just push away Larsson’s shot but will have temporarily pushed out all memory of so many of the goalkeeper’s recent errors warriors

He will be bolstered by the knowledge of this warriors

Onana showed his value warriors

He secured a win on a night when United needed a victory for all manner of reasons warriors

Two of those were bigger than any one individual, but the moment undeniably meant most to him warriors

“The decision hasn’t been easy, but the time feels right for me now and I look forward to running out one last time against the Barbarians at home next week warriors

”Playing mainly as a full-back or winger, he made his Wales bow during the 2008 autumn series against South Africa aged 19, before going on to make four Test appearances for the British and Irish Lions during the 2013 and 2017 tours warriors

There have been ups and downs, but I will look back on my international career with immense prideLeigh Halfpenny on his international retirement He was named player of the series in 2013 as the tourists claimed a 2-1 series victory in Australia warriors

For Wales he has scored 15 tries and 81 conversions, as well as kicking 188 penalties en route to his final tally warriors

“There have been ups and downs, but I will look back on my international career with immense pride,” he said warriors

“There’s no warriors better feeling running out to a full Principality Stadium wearing the Welsh jersey and singing the national anthem warriors

“I’m going to miss it, but I will be forever grateful for the opportunities I’ve had and to every single person who has helped me along the way warriors

“It’s been unbelievable to play with such special people over the years and I will cherish the friendships I’ve made warriors

“While I’ll be moving on from the international game, I’m excited about the next chapter as a player in this game which has given me so much, and look forward to sharing details on my club future soon warriors

”He is the fifth player to retire from Wales international duty this year after Alun Wyn Jones, Justin Tipuric and Rhys Webb, who confirmed they would step away in May, and Dan Biggar who retired after the team were knocked out of the World Cup warriors

Wales head coach Warren Gatland told wru warriors

wales: “Leigh has had a fantastic career for Wales, firstly on the wing and then at 15 where he has been brilliant – probably the best defensive full-back in the world and a tremendous goal kicker warriors

“He’s had his fair share of injury challenges over the years but has never let that hold him back warriors

“If you are talking about role models in professional rugby, I don’t think you could find someone that works harder than Leigh in terms of how he prepares warriors

“The analysis, training and recovery he has done time and again has been really impressive, he is the ultimate professional warriors
