The early goal helped Man Utd play confidently against the home team, controlling the game well before two more goals in the second half scored by Marcus Rashford and Martial respectively.

`I know Wayne Rooney is somewhere clapping like crazy after witnessing his junior’s performance,` a fan commented.
Another added: ‘This goal is even better than Rooney’s goal in 2011, in fact he made a reverse shot, one of the best goals in Premier League history.’
