Numerous Manchester United players were in action on international duty during Thursday.
The summer signing from Brentford has been a revelation at Old Trafford, scoring six goals so far this season.
Mbeumo could not have the same effect for his nation though as African giants Cameroon, shockingly did not qualify for the 2026 World Cup.
They lost 0-1 at home to the Democratic Republic of Congo in an embarrassing evening for the Indomitable Lions.
Mbeumo had little effect on the match but his biggest contribution came after 65 minutes when he shot narrowly wide.
The United keeper on loan at Trabzonspor, captained his side on the night but could do little to stop his side from suffering the shock defeat.
He did get down well to prevent Congo from opening the scoring earlier in the second half to deny Cedric Bakambu.
Nonetheless, Congos winner in the 91st minute probably could have been dealt with by Onana. A deep corner was met at the back post but the ball went through the keeper, when he perhaps should have got his body behind the effort.
It was an all too familiar sight for United fans.
The evening wasnt much better for Dalot who played 90 minutes of Portugals 0-2 loss to the Republic of Ireland.
He won two tackles and made three clearances on the night.
Dalot also won five ground duels but failed to win an aerial contest.
The fullback was impressive on the ball, completing 98% of his passes and did manage to complete 100% of his dribble attempts.
He also tried to score a goal for his side but his efforts were in vain as all four of his efforts were blocked by the Irish wall.
Bruno Fernandes was suspended for the match but will likely be in action for his side against Armenia on Sunday night.
