What Alejandro Garnacho told staff before scoring winning goals for Manchester United

Manchester United's Alejandro Garnacho predicted he would score two goals in the FA Youth Cup final last season before going out on the pitch and delivering exactly that against Nottingham Forest, in front of a record-breaking Old Trafford crowd.

Garnacho contributed seven goals and three assists in the Under-18s' successful Youth Cup campaign last term. The youngster was outstanding in the competition and he's recently broken into the first team under Erik ten Hag.

The 18-year-old scored against Real Sociedad in the Europa League and Fulham in the Premier League earlier this month and his well-taken goal at Craven Cottage was of particular importance, as it won United three points deep into stoppage time.
