Greenwood earned a second successive star-man accolade for his efforts, beating off competition from Aaron Wan-Bissaka and Daniel James to top the poll in our Official App.

“Mason Greenwood is different class in and around the box,” manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer told Sky Sports. “You're not surprised when he scores goals. It's fitting that it should be an Academy player who scores in the 4,000th match [in a row in which United have fielded an youth-team product] and it makes it hard for me to leave him out.”

“It was a great finish again,” added captain Harry Maguire. “It was pretty similar to his goal in midweek [against AZ Alkmaar] to be honest. He is a special talent. He is a young boy, he is working hard in training, he needs to keep his head down and not get carried away. I am sure he is going to have a big future at this club. We are lucky to have him.”
