Francis Ngannou’s Takedown of Andre Onana Surprises Fans at Old Trafford
Francis Ngannou, the PFL champion, was a special guest at Old Trafford for Manchester United’s 3-2 win in Europe last night. After the match, he went onto the pitch to snap a photo with fellow Cameroonian Andre Onana.
Ngannou later spoke with TNT Sports and shared his thoughts on the experience.
“It was a good game, we had fun, there was a lot of action. It was my first time here, good experience and then we have a victory. [Onana] had a great game even though he took a yellow card for free… He had a really good game, right? He was the man of the game.”

Francis Ngannou and Andre Onana were having a friendly moment at Old Trafford, but it took a surprising turn. As they posed for a photo, Ngannou playfully took Onana down, rolling around with him and pretending to throw punches before letting him up. Fans were shocked by the unexpected move.
Ngannou is no stranger to football stars. After his PFL debut win against Renan Ferreira last month, he met with the legendary Cristiano Ronaldo. Earlier this year, Conor McGregor also made headlines when he kicked at a player during a match at Arsenal’s Emirates Stadium, leading to an investigation and new rules.
