Manchester United fans took to social media to vote for Alejandro Garnacho’s bicycle kick against Everton as one of the goals of the season.

However, the Argentine winger took control of the action on the pitch with his second goal of the season.

And fans of Erik ten Hag’s team quickly crowned it one of the goals of the season.

Another added: ‘No, this has an argument to be in the top 5 goals ever. Do we really understand what these kids just did? He checks, has to run back, head kick into the far top corner? Just outrageous.’

Rooney’s spectacular performance came in a Manchester derby in 2011 and is remembered as one of the greatest goals in Premier League history.
