Watch: Man Utd loanee Dylan Levitt scores long-range beauty vs. Celtic

Manchester United’s attention may have been on their FA Youth Cup final against Nottingham Forest on Wednesday but another of their promising youngsters, Dylan Levitt, showcased his talents with a wonderful long-range strike for Dundee United against Celtic.
