including a spot-kick courtesy of Diogo Goncalves &#8211; in a disappointing performance from Erik ten Hag&#8217;s side that saw them rub out a two-goal lead after going down to 10 men.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Marcus Rashford was handed a red card inside the first-half and a man down United battled to cling onto the tie after a handball just before half-time saw Copenhagen equalise via a penalty ahead of the break.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Whilst United got back on top with their own penalty kick in the second-half, late glory from teenager Roony Bardghij saw Copenhagen beat English top-flight opponents for the first time since 2006.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>But whilst Fernandes&#8217; penalty record has seen him miss only five of the 55 spot-kicks he&#8217;s stepped up for, Onana at the other end of the pitch wanted to leave nothing to chance.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/11\/09\/16\/77612345-12730599-image-m-146_1699547086056.jpg\" height=\"438\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Andre Onana chose to face his own net rather than watch Bruno Fernandes step up to take Man United&#8217;s penalty on Wednesday evening<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/11\/09\/16\/77610831-12730599-image-a-144_1699546026073.jpg\" height=\"420\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>The goalkeeper had no reason to fear his captain&#8217;s impressive record from the spot as the Portugal international made it 3-2<\/p>\n<p>Your browser does not support iframes.<\/p>\n<p>As if nervous about Fernandes&#8217; chances in front of goal &#8211; as any fan might be &#8211; the Cameroon international was filmed by travelling fans facing in the polar opposite direction.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Instead of watching his team-mate, the 27-year-old is filmed staring without blinking into the thicket of away fans, and opting not to react to their cheers of encouragement for Fernandes &#8211; or efforts to catch his attention.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>As the video circulated on social media, supporters poked light-hearted fun at the still-as-a-statue keeper.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;Batteries died,&#8217;
