Cameroonian goalkeeper Andre Onana conceded another goal as Manchester United ended their tour of the US in defeat.

German side Borussia Dortmund came from behind to beat United 3-2 in their final game of the tour on Monday morning in Las Vegas.

Manchester United dominated the encounter at the Allegiant Arena but came short in the end against their German opposition.

Portuguese fullback Diogo Dalot opened the scoring with a stunning goal from just outside the box.

But a quick-fire double from Donyell Malen turned things around in favour of the Bundesliga side heading into the break.

United’s boss, Erik Ten Hag, brought in some fresh legs in the second half including new signing, Onana, and Brazilian star Antony, who went on to level the score for the Red Devils.

However, it was another second-half substitute, Dortmund’s Youssoufa Moukoko, who wrapped up the show with a late winner for the Yellow and Black.

Cameroon’s goalkeeper Onana enjoyed more minutes as a United player but started his second game for the Reds on the bench.

He came on in the second half for Tom Heaton, who shipped two goals in the opening 45 minutes.

Moments after he came on, he made his feelings known to Harry Maguire after a poor defensive error from the defender freed up a loose ball to Ivorian forward Sebastien Haller whose final effort he excellently saved.

Onana, however, could do nothing late on when his compatriot, Moukoko, 18, netted the winner to wrap up proceedings.

The goal was his third in two matches after he conceded two stunning goals against LALIGA giants Real Madrid in the previous game.
