If you look closely, the response says 405. This is an error code.

Try to set the user agent to something more realistic, such as: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Ubuntu; Linux x86_64; rv:63.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/63.0.

Some websites do some basic validation on the user agent and redirect you to some special page if they detect something weird.
