Anthony Martial was ecstatic after helping France beat Italy on Thursday night.

The Manchester United forward scored his side's opening goal after a quarter of an hour in their 3-1 friendly win over the Azzurri in Bari.

Martial, 20, opened his senior international scoring account for Les Bleus when beating Gianluigi Buffon after a curling pass from Red Devils colleague Paul Pogba.

The youngster took to Twitter to show his absolute delight at contributing to a deserved victory for his country.
