Garnacho: Hearing my name chanted is incredible!
Manchester United forward Alejandro Garnacho insists he still often has to pinch himself after hearing his name being belted out at Old Trafford.
Our no.17 was in fine form at the Theatre of Dreams this afternoon, as Erik ten Hag's side posted a valiant 2-0 success over Everton in the Premier League, thanks to penalties from both Bruno Fernandes and Marcus Rashford.
Garnacho, who won both spot-kicks during the first 45 minutes in M16, was a constant livewire for the Reds, driving at the Toffees' backline time and time again.
Proving too hot to handle on two separate occasions, the Argentina international was praised throughout his performance by the adoring fans inside Old Trafford.

Despite being unlucky not to find the net himself against Sean Dyche's side, Garnacho provided a constant problem for the Premier League strugglers with his trickery and flair throughout the contest.

ArticleBruno leads the way when it comes to scoring from the spot for the Reds.
"I think it is very important always to win the game and to get three points," added the United forward.
"We lost the last two [league] games so I think it is important in that sense if we want to be in the Champions League next season."

With Fernandes and Rashford opting to share the responsibility between themselves regarding spot-kicks, Garna also added how no matter who puts the ball in the net, winning remains the utmost priority overall.
"Bruno is the captain and he is responsible for the penalties," added the 19-year-old.
"If Bruno is not playing then Rashford is the second one, so being up to him it is not a problem.
"We are a family so this [kind of thing] is no worries."
