Man Utd loanee Amad continues dazzling form with outrageous goal for Sunderland

Manchester United loanee Amad scored a cracking consolation goal for Sunderland on Saturday to continue his tremendous form.

The Ivorian wonderkid, 20, is enjoying this season on Wearside and has come of age under Tony Mowbray. Amad, who joined United from Atalanta in a £37m transfer deal two-and-a-half years ago, boasts eight goals and two assists across 27 appearances in the Championship, with his latest contribution coming in a 2-1 defeat away to fellow promotion contenders Coventry City.

With Sunderland trailing by two goals in the 94th minute, the United starlet provided some short-lived hope by firing in a spectacular strike past Coventry goalkeeper Ben Wilson. Cutting inside on his favoured left foot around 16 yards out on the right-hand side of the penalty area, Amad curled an effort beyond static 'keeper Wilson to stun the 21,000-plus crowd.
