Alejandro Garnacho’s use of gorilla emoticons in a tweet regarding Andre Onana has Erik ten Hag unconcerned about a punishment for the Manchester United star.

WTF transpired? After Onana’s last-ditch penalty save in Tuesday’s 1-0 Champions League victory over FC Copenhagen, Garnarcho tweeted a photo of the goalkeeper with gorilla emojis. After removing the emojis, the 19-year-old deleted the message completely. The FA is looking at what happened.
VERDICT: United manager Erik Ten Hag stated on Friday that the suspension of Javier Garnarcho is not a concern for him. Just [not] worried about this moment,” he told reporters on Saturday, just before Sunday’s Manchester derby. “We are in discussions with the FA. I can attest to that, and I think it’s important to stress that we are united and that it shows in Andre Onana’s message.
A MAIN VIEW: Ten Hag’s post was actually Onana’s reaction to the situation. The Cameroonian goalkeeper shared a team selfie on Thursday on Instagram Story, alongside Garnarcho and teammates. He captioned the post: “People cannot determine what I should be outraged by. Power and strength are precisely what Garnacho meant. We should end this here.

THE NEXT STEP: Garnacho may violate the FA’s regulations regarding racially sensitive social media postings, even though Onana has defended his comrade. Bernardo Silva of Manchester City and Edinson Cavani of Manchester United received one-match suspensions and three-match penalties in 2019 and 2020, respectively, for comparable infractions.
