Manchester United 3-1 Liverpool

With Skrtel and Clyne left reeling in the Liverpool box, Martial coolly slotted past a despairing Simon Mignolet to make it 3-1

It was a cathartic roar that enveloped hope for the future. When Anthony Martial set off on his run, played in by Ashley Young, he had the coltish gait of a teenager.

He bamboozled Martin Skrtel with his footwork and simply shrugged off the challenge of Nathaniel Clyne. Youthful exuberance it seemed; the finish still had to be executed.

Yet he looked up coolly and simply drove the ball past Simon Mignolet. If you have a £58million price tag hanging over you, this is the way to announce yourself at a new club. 

Twenty one minutes into his debut, with 86 minutes on the clock and Liverpool threatening an unlikely point, the world’s most expensive teenager arrived in the Premier League.
