Alejandro Garnacho has described making his debut for Manchester United as an 'incredible moment.'
United managed to end their run of successive hammerings at the hands of great rivals — following a 4-0 defeat to Liverpool and a 3-1 loss at Arsenal — on Thursday as they held Chelsea to a 1-1 draw in their penultimate game at Old Trafford this season. Fans were also offered a brief glimpse into the future as Garnacho was handed his first appearance in the senior team by Ralf Rangnick.
The Spanish-born Argentine forward has been in scintillating form in the academy sides this season and has particularly impressed in United's march to their first FA Youth Cup final since 2011, scoring five goals and claiming three assists in just five matches. His performances haven't gone unnoticed and he has been promoted to the first team in recent weeks, being named on the bench on four occasions.

Rangnick has repeatedly resisted calls to play the exciting youngsters he has at his disposal. But, with United down seven players due to injury on Thursday, he opted to hand Garnacho his debut. The 17-year-old replaced Anthony Elanga in added time and was delighted with his brief cameo.
"Incredible moment making my debut at 17 years old for Manchester United in the Premier League at the Theatre of Dreams," the winger tweeted alongside a photograph of him readying to go on. "I can’t put into words what I’m feeling right now, I’ve been dreaming of this moment since I was 4 years old.
"Remember guys, Dreams really do come true." He concluded with a love heart emoji.
