Mason Greenwood has made history as he scored his first goal for Manchester United against Marseille on Wednesday night.

The 18-year-old midfielder was given the captaincy by manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer and he didn't let him down, scoring the only goal of the game to secure all three points for United.

Greenwood had previously been linked with a move away from Old Trafford but it seems that the youngster is happy at the club and looking set to become one of the most important players for them in the future.

His performance against Marseille was a testament to his talent and skill and he showed why he is such a valuable member of the squad.

Solskjaer praised Greenwood's performance after the match and said: "I'm delighted for Mason because he's worked so hard for this moment."

United have been struggling in recent weeks but they will be hoping that Greenwood can help them turn their fortunes around.

The youngster has already shown what he can do on the pitch and there's no doubt that he will continue to improve as he gets more experience under his belt.

Overall, it was a great victory for Manchester United and they will be hoping that they can build on this success going forward.
