He has made some forgetful misses and has been caught in an embarrassing position while trying to save some airbornes.

Something similar of the sort took place on Saturday, January 20, 2024, when Onana was in front guarding the Cameroon net. During the injury time, Senegal were 2-1 up, and Cameroon were in the quest to find an equaliser. There was time left for one last surge from Cameroon however before anything could transpire, disaster struck the African side. They conceded again, courtesy of a fair connection from Sadio Mane. It was not at all a fierce strike by Mane, but it anyhow went beyond the reach of goalkeeper Andre Onana. Watch the goal, that buried the match.
