The draw between Manchester United and Liverpool (2-2), registered this Sunday, was talked about due to the way it 'wrapped up' the accounts in the race to the Premier League throne, but also for a moment (which is not unprecedented, although it is uncommon) around André Onana.

At a certain point in the match at Old Trafford, the Cameroonian goalkeeper was 'caught' putting Vaseline on his gloves and the Daily Mail ended up finding a possible explanation for his decision.

"Vaseline is used by some goalkeepers in somewhat wet conditions, because it makes the palms of the gloves super grippy in those situations", explains GloveGlu, it is worth remembering that Onana had already caused a stir, in the past month of December, for the same gesture in a game against West Ham.

It should be remembered that the red devils were at a disadvantage, staged a 'somersault' in front of one of their biggest rivals and ended up not avoiding the draw, in a great penalty in the final stretch, in which Onana was not able to stop the draw signed by Salah.
