Man Utd whiz Greenwood breaks record with Everton goal

With his goal against Everton, Mason Greenwood is now Manchester United's leading goalscorer this season.

The 18-year-old slammed a Daniel James pass past Jordan Pickford after an own goal by Victor Lindelof threatened to hand all three points to the Merseysiders.

It means Greenwood is United's youngest scorer in a Premier League match at Old Trafford since Federico Macheda's famous winner against Aston Villa in April, 2009.

The seventh strike of Greenwood's season means he is second top scorer for the Reds, behind Marcus Rashford.

The goal followed up his brace against AZ Alkmaar in the Europa League on Thursday night.
