Alejandro Garnacho has handed Manchester United the lead against Real Sociedad.
It was a wonderful goal from the youngster, given another chance after impressing against FC Sheriff last week, and he can thank Cristiano Ronaldo for a delightful through ball.
The pace Garnacho shows not only to get on the ball, but to beat his defender is second to none.
The goal was checked by VAR but it was deemed good to stand.

United need to win the match by two goals to top the group, but Garnacho’s goal gives La Real something to think about. They can’t afford to concede again and will likely push for a goal.
This was only the second goal La Real conceded in the group stages this season.
