‘The best’ ‘What a talent!’- Kyle Walker & Alejandro Garnacho blown away by Man Utd star in FA Cup victory

Manchester United ended the 2023-24 season on an impressive note despite their woeful Premier League campaign, winning the FA Cup after securing a 2-1 victory over Manchester City in the final of the competition at Wembley Stadium on Saturday.

First-half goals from Alejandro Garnacho and Kobbie Mainoo were enough for the Red Devils to clinch their 13th FA Cup, and Jeremy Doku’s 87th-minute goal came too little too late as Man United held on to finish their season on a high.

Mainoo did not only grab an important goal, but the 19-year-old was at the heart of it all and was a calm presence throughout the game, showing exactly why he is expected to be in the final England squad for the European Championship this summer after Three Lions manager Gareth Southgate selected him in the 33-man provisional squad.

Garnacho was blown away with his performance, taking to social media platform Instagram to shower praise on his Man United teammate.

Man City star Kyle Walker was also impressed with the Red Devils sensation, reacting to his display after the game.

“What a talent, what a talent,” the defender replied when asked about Mainoo.

“The generation of English players coming through is very exciting.

“Hopefully he can take his form from breaking into the team this season into the Euros if selected.”

Bruno Fernandes deservedly emerged as the Man United Player of the Year this season, but Mainoo has been the breakthrough story of the season.

He started the campaign injured but has been a revelation since making his first-ever league start for the Red Devils against Everton in November, and he has been largely consistent, ending the season with five goals and an assist in 32 appearances across all competitions.

Mainoo will now hope to impress for England at the Euros and help them land their first major trophy since 1966.
