Man Utd: Alejandro Garnacho, 17, goes viral for stunning solo goal vs Everton U18s | OneFootball

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.

It reminded some people of Gareth Bale’s legendary solo goal for Real Madrid against Barcelona the 2014 Copa del Rey final, when the Welshman destroyed Marc Bartra for pace down the left flank before scoring.

Remember the name: Alejandro Garnacho

The talented Garnacho has now been directly involved in 17 goals in 25 matches (11 goals, six assists) in all competitions this season.

And if the 17-year-old continues scoring goals like this, it surely won’t be long before we see him making his first-team debut.

Remember the name!
