'The best' - Alejandro Garnacho praises Manchester United teammate Kobbie Mainoo

Manchester United striker Alejandro Garnacho has praised Kobbie Mainoo after he scored twice in a six-goal thriller against Brighton and Hove Albion on Saturday.

Mainoo impressed the crowd at Leigh Sports Village with an impeccable display in front of goal. His first came from a corner to the back post which found Mainoo unmarked to fire home.

The 17-year-old's second came when the Seagulls failed to clear a corner and the midfielder, who had moved into the forward line at the break, fired a shot home from around the penalty spot. Taking to Instagram after the match, Mainoo shared a picture of him celebrating his opening goal with the caption: "2 piece".
