It also meant a full debut for Alejandro Garnacho, the 18-year-old who celebrated scoring the decisive goals in last season’s FA Youth Cup final by imitating Ronaldo’s famous celebration. An unlikely source of a breakthrough, it was Dalot’s first goal since a FA Cup fourth round win at Tranmere Rovers nearly three years ago, and the first at Old Trafford of his four-and-a-half years at United. Ten Hag took that breakthrough as an opportunity to reintroduce Harry Maguire, who replaced Lisandro Martinez at half-time, but it was another substitute who doubled United’s lead. To Ronaldo’s credit, he immediately picked himself up and scrambled towards goal, making up enough ground to stab the loose ball into the small gap still open.
