Anthony Elanga put the Reds ahead with a wonderfully-composed goal, controlling Fred’s ball well before heading past Jonas Lössl.
Mason Greenwood doubled our lead, simply tapping home into an empty net after Bruno Fernandes’ excellent run and lay-off. And then, six minutes after coming off the bench, Marcus Rashford rifled home a third to wrap the game up for Ralf Rangnick’s side.
For many years a statistical rarity, the feat of three different Academy goalscorers in one game has become more common in recent times thanks to the emergence of highly-talented forwards like Elanga, Greenwood and Rashford, but also goalscoring midfielders like Scott McTominay.
