• The Cameroon goalie, André Onana, was seen providing free-kick guidance to Bryan Mbeumo.
• The Manchester United player was unable to lead his nation to triumph against underdog Eswatini in a World Cup qualifying match.
• Since joining Manchester United, the player has faced significant criticism and speculation suggests he might be transferred.

Andre Onana was seen providing free-kick guidance to Bryan Mbeumo during Cameroon's match against Eswatini.

The Manchester United goalie and the Indomitable Lions were tied in a scoreless stalemate against a nation positioned 159th globally.

Andre Onana provides guidance to Mbeumo

A video posted online shows Onana conversing with his teammate Bryan Mbeumo as Mbeumo prepares to execute a free-kick.

Clearly, it didn’t go according to plan as Cameroon was unable to defeat the underdogs in a critical 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifier match.

Onana might have been offering advice to the Brentford player from a goalie's viewpoint. He is recognized for his amusing behavior during games.

During Manchester United’s match against Fulham in the Premier League in January, Onana positioned himself at the halfway line to provide directions to his captain, Bruno Fernandes.

Since his arrival at Manchester United in 2023, he hasn’t met the anticipated standards. His displays have been marred by errors, causing several supporters to begin doubting him.

Man United owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe recently hinted that Onana's signing was a "mistake." His club coach Ruben Amorim has continuously defended the goalkeeper.

"Last year presented him with some challenging times, however, this season, he has made several outstanding saves for our team," Amorim stated through Sky Sports.

He occasionally faced difficulties, which is typical. Upon examining our squad, one can identify numerous athletes dealing with similar issues. Our collective performance has been subpar, and individual members are encountering various challenges.

How Eswatini frustrated Cameroon

Cameroon aimed to solidify their position at the top of Group D, but after the stalemate, they now hold only a two-point advantage, albeit having played an additional match.

In Libya and Cape Verde, both teams have accumulated seven points each, whereas Angola trails slightly behind with six points. Throughout much of the match, Onana watched from the sidelines as his team controlled possession.

They nearly took the lead via Vincent Aboubakar, whose header was impressively pushed away by Mlamuli Makhanya, according to SuperSport.

They were unable to penetrate Eswatini's defense and will need nearly flawless performances in their upcoming matches to secure qualification. The winners from each of the nine groups will earn automatic berths in the 2026 World Cup, which will be jointly hosted by the USA, Mexico, and Canada.

Throughout their history, Cameroon has participated in eight FIFA World Cup tournaments and became the inaugural African side to advance to the quarter-finals in 1990.

During the 2022 World Cup, Onana was sent back home by ex-coach Rigobert Song.
