Manchester United's long wait to score from a corner has been finally brought to an end, thanks to Harry Maguire's first half header against Leeds United at Elland Road.
With 34 minutes on the clock, the United captain, who was controversially kept in the starting line-up by interim manager Ralf Rangnick, powered an emphatic header past Leeds shot-stopper Illan Meslier.
It was a terrific delivery from the left-flank from Luke Shaw and Maguire found space to power home his first Premier League goal of the campaign, sending the away supporters absolutely wild at the other end of the ground.
Having come under hefty-sized criticism in recent weeks, Maguire could not have picked a better time to score and rediscover some much-needed support.
