How can I replay my animation once it collides with a hazard?

So this is my code:

using System.Collections;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Data;
using UnityEngine;
using UnityEngine.UI;

public class PlayerHealth : MonoBehaviour
{
    public float health;
    public float maxHealth;
    public Image healthBar;
    public Transform player;
    public Animation healthFadeAnimation;
    void Start()
    {
        health = maxHealth;
    }

    void Update()
    {
        healthBar.fillAmount = Mathf.Clamp(health/maxHealth, 0, 1);
        if(health < 0)
        {
            health = 0;
        }
    }

    void OnCollisionEnter2D(Collision2D collision)
    {
        if(collision.gameObject.CompareTag("Hazard") || collision.gameObject.CompareTag("Enemy"))
        {
            healthFadeAnimation.Play();
        }
    }
}

You may be able to tell that I want to make it so that everytime player takes damage the healthbar appears and then fades. I have an animation asset named HealthFade and I’m trying to drop it on the Health Fade Animation but it won’t let me do it. Am I making a wrong approach here?

Pretty sure you need to use the animator Instead
