Manchester United youngster Alejandro Garnacho provided a stunning assist for Scott McTominay’s goal against Aston Villa on Thursday, MySportDab reports.
The Argentine wonderkid did not start the Carabao Cup third round match at Old Trafford, but he came o in the 62nd minute with United losing trailing 2-1.
Garnacho performed very well during the match and helped Manchester United turn the game around from losing to winning.

In the 90th minute, Garnacho shocked everyone with a world class assist for Scott McTominay’s goal to make it 4-2.
The academy player picked up the ball on the left side and saw McTominay making a good run forward.
He then produced a beautiful cross that the Scottish midfielder immediately converted into a goal and sealed the match for the Red Devils.
It was a beautiful assist that Ronaldo would be proud of, you can view the video at the end of this article.
He no doubt has a massive talent for a 18 years old and could become another key player moving forward like Marcus Rashford.
The Argentine is now becoming a more regular first-team player at United and could lead the Starting XI in the next few years.
Garnacho is now likely to be included in Argentina’s World Cup squad, set to be announced on Monday.
However, Ten Hag is unsure if Garnacho is ready for such a big stage.
“It’s a big step to be chosen for a World Cup, the best players in the world are always there. I don’t know if it’s the right time for him.
“He must keep his head clean, calm, work hard and develop in every game.”
