Manchester United missed the knockout stages of the Champions League. The Red Devils lost 2: 3 at RB Leipzig. Goalkeeper David de Gea receives criticism from United legend Paul Scholes.

England’s record champions trailed 3-0 to the Saxons after 69 minutes of play, following goals from Jose Tasende (2nd), Amadou Haidara (13th) and Justin Kluivert. Paul Schole’s goalkeeper David de Gea blamed the last goal.

“David de Gea is afraid of hurting himself. He should never go out like this. As a goalkeeper, you go out and make yourself the greatest you can,” said the club’s living legend (709 games for Manchester United) according to THE SUN.

The Spaniard moves away from the ball and the back of the scorer Kluivert, complains the former international: “He is actually getting smaller. It is criminal for such an experienced goalkeeper.”

De Gea has been criticized for months after changing his performance. Many fans call out aspiring Dean Henderson among posts. De Gea’s concession behavior should make critical voices louder.

Manchester United had won the first leg against RB Leipzig at home 5-0, and Saxons United were one goal away to advance after Bruno Fernandes (80th, penalty) and Konate (82nd, own goal) still by the second: 3 connection had been busy.

The record champions now have to play in the Europa League, Leipzig progressing to the round of 16. It is not yet clear whether first or second, as the match between Paris Saint-Germain and Basaksehir was canceled due to a racist incident and will be rescheduled on Wednesday (6:55 pm).
