Alejandro Garnacho paid special tribute to his former Man United teammate during the Premier League showdown at the Emirates on Sunday.
Alejandro Garnacho honoured former Manchester United teammate and footballing hero Cristiano Ronaldo with two incredible gestures during the club's Premier League game vs Arsenal.
Garnacho, 19, was summoned from the substitutes bench with seven minutes to play and the scores still level. He soon had the ball in the net after racing through in Ronaldo-like style to slot home, but the strike was ruled out by VAR for offside and Arsenal went on to grab two late goals to snatch all three points for themselves.

But it was astonishing to see them resurface on Garnacho's feet at the same venue where Ronaldo had, famously, scored two goals, and provided an assist, to book United's spot in the Champions League showpiece 14 years ago, when Garnacho was only five.
