“I’m begging all my Manchester United fans” – Patrice Evra sends message to ‘stop’ hate after Red Devils’ win over Copenhagen 

Manchester United legend Patrice Evra has urged the club's fans to support the players after their 1-0 win over Copenhagen at Old Trafford on Tuesday, October 24.

The Red Devils secured a 1-0 win over Copenhagen in a crucial UEFA Champions League group-stage match on Tuesday. The visitors had plenty of chances to score with 16 attempts but failed to do so. Manchester United took advantage of it in the 72nd minute as Harry Maguire scored via a header.

Copenhagen then received a penalty in the dying minutes of the game after a foul from Scott McTominay. However, Andre Onana saved Jordan Larsson's penalty to secure a big win for the Red Devils.

After the game, Evra took to Instagram to urge United fans to stop the hate on Maguire and Onana, writing:

"I'm begging all my @manchesterunited fans to keep supporting every players on this team thank you @harrymaguire93 and @andreonana.24 never give up 🙏 #ilovethisgame #positive4evra #manchesterunited"

He also commented on Manchester United's Instagram post on Onana's save, saying:

“The hate have to stop please 🙏”

Maguire has been subjected to immense criticism and hate in recent years and was even linked with a move away in the summer.

His recent displays, however, have been very good. He provided an assist in United's win over Brentford, won the Player of the Match award against Sheffield United, and scored the winner against Copenhagen.

Onana, meanwhile, has had a terrible time at Manchester United since arriving from Inter Milan in the summer. He has conceded 20 goals in 13 games across competitions and has made multiple errors so far.

His penalty save against Copenhagen might do his confidence a world of good moving forward.
