'My boy's scored!': Robbie Savage fights back the tears live on TV as his son Charlie scores his first senior goal after Manchester United sent him out on loan to Forest Green

Robbie Savage was overcome with emotion and seen brimming with pride on BT Sport after watching his son Charlie score his first good in senior football.

Manchester United sent the 19-year-old midfielder out on loan to League One strugglers Forest Green in January to ensure he was afforded more pitch time.

Charlie made his fifth appearance for Duncan Ferguson's side on Saturday as they hosted Bristol Rovers and scored in the 12th minute of the game.

Savage, who was on duty for BT Sport Score, couldn't help but celebrate after seeing the news of his son's goal come through on the screens.
