Martin Dubravka was thrust back into the spotlight on Wednesday evening as he earned a rare start for Manchester United in the Carabao Cup. The Newcastle United goalkeeper has been clamouring for minutes in Erik ten Hag's first-team after finding game time hard to come by since departing Tyneside at the start of the campaign.
Dubravka marked his return from the outset with a clean sheet as Man United progressed to the last eight of the competition. However, two mistakes by the Slovakian sparked concern among the Old Trafford home support.
The former Magpies stopper first failed to clear his lines from a Burnley cross before sending the ball back towards his own goal, forcing Casemiro into a last-ditch goal line clearance. Moments later Dubravka let the ball roll under his foot after receiving a back pass from the Brazilian, leaving supporters panicked.
