Manchester United youngster Kobbie Mainoo hailed Alejandro Garnacho after the team’s 2-0 win v Wolves.
Alejandro Garnacho came off the bench to score on his comeback with a superb injury time strike at home to Wolves.
The teenager was praised by manager Erik ten Hag for his instant impact in the victory, with Old Trafford erupting when his goal went in.
Garnacho’s pace and unpredictability gives United a spark, and is especially useful late in games.
Praise for Alejandro Garnacho
Alejandro Garnacho dedicated his goal to his unborn son who he has named Enzo ahead of his birth, after he recently announced his partner was pregnant.
The teenager is an inspiration to his peers, having won the FA Youth Cup alongside the team’s ‘class of 2022’ last year.
One of those teammates is Kobbie Mainoo, who made his Manchester United debut earlier this year.
Mainoo was one of Garnacho’s colleagues who responded to his message on Instagram after his comeback goal.
He wrote in response, ‘different’, hailing Garnacho’s unique qualities which make him so special. Dan Gore and Maxi Oyedele also wrote messages.
Manchester United are fortunate to see such a special player emerging, and he has put his faith in manager Erik ten Hag by signing a new contract.
It is a wise move. Ten Hag rates him highly, how he could possibly not.
United now need two wins from the last three games to seal a Champions League place for next season.
Marcus Rashford remains out with an injury for the time being, which makes Garnacho’s return even more timely.
