Man Utd: Alejandro Garnacho, 17, goes viral for stunning solo goal vs Everton U18s
Manchester United forward Alejandro Garnacho enhanced his burgeoning reputation by scoring a stunning solo goal against Everton’s Under-18s in the FA Youth Cup on Wednesday night.
United’s U18s advanced to the quarter-finals thanks to an impressive 4-1 victory. Charlie McNeill, Kobbie Mainoo, Sam Mather were also on the scoresheet for the Red Devils.
However, Garnacho went viral on social media after scoring a sensational solo goal in the 90th minute, displaying his blistering pace in the process.
When an Everton corner was headed clear, Garnacho launched a one-man counter-attack down the left wing.
The Spaniard, who joined Man Utd from Atletico Madrid in September 2020, rinsed his opponent in a one-on-one sprint before producing a composed finish past Everton’s goalkeeper.
Garnacho seized the moment by whipping off his shirt before copying his idol Cristiano Ronaldo’s famous ‘SIUUU!’ celebration.
