Manchester United fans have seen some incredible goals over the years and there’s a new one for the scrapbook thanks to an incredible strike from Alejandro Garnacho for the Red Devils at Goodison Park.

Amidst a crackling atmosphere on Merseyside as Everton fans protested for the first time at their home ground the 10-point deduction handed down by the Premier League, the Toffees were silenced by a simply stunning overhead kick.

With less than three minutes on the clock Diogo Dalot raced down the right and crossed deep into the box where Garnacho met the ball with an amazing acrobatic effort that flew into the top corner.

The goal brought back memories of Wayne Rooney’s similar goal for Manchester United against neighbours City in 2011.
