Erik ten Hag's side won this round, with Jadon Sancho scoring the decisive spot-kick.
Much attention was placed on goalkeeper Andre Onana, who came up with rather bizarre tactics in a bid to distract the penalty takers.His antics worked against Kai Havertz, as he saved the German effort. However, he failed to repeat the trick when Gabriel Magalhaes surged forward.The Cameroonian shot-stopper told the Brazilian where he wanted him to place his effort. Magalhaes went ahead and did just that, but Onana dived in the opposite direction.
