Showing outstanding ingenuity and technique to conjure the breath-taking strike, Garnacho showed why his United team-mate Fernandes believes he has the ability to become one of the world’s best players.
Bruno Fernandes says Alejandro Garnacho’s wonder goal in Manchester United’s victory against Everton proved the Argentine teenager can be “something special”.
Garnacho gave a glimpse of his vast potential with a brilliant overhead kick to inspire United’s 3-0 win in Sunday’s Premier League clash at Goodison Park.

“It’s amazing, something out of this world, I think,” United captain Fernandes said.
Garnacho marked the goal by copying former Manchester United star Cristiano Ronaldo’s celebration.
Fernandes cautioned that it is too early to suggest Garnacho can emulate Ronaldo’s remarkable career, but he expects great things from his young team-mate, who arrived from Atletico Madrid in 2020.
“Probably he’s watching too much Cristiano clips! We all know that he’s a big fan. Still a long way for him to be like Cristiano but he’s getting his steps,” Fernandes said.
