Manchester United scores on the 1st minute in European competition for the first time since 1991

Today, Manchester United is playing Bodo/Glimt in the 5th round of the Europa League, and an extraordinary event took place in this match.

Details: Already in the 1st minute of the game, the Red Devils took the lead. The opening goal came from Alejandro Garnacho, who scored into an empty net.

This is the first time since 1991 that Manchester United has scored in the opening minute of a European match. Back then, Brian McClair scored in the opening seconds of a Cup Winners' Cup match against Montpellier.

Additionally, Garnacho's goal marked the first home goal for Manchester United under new manager Ruben Amorim.

Interestingly, in Amorim's debut match against Ipswich (1-1), Manchester United also scored early, with Marcus Rashford netting in the 2nd minute.

Reminder: In this match, left-back Tyrell Malacia made his first start for Manchester United in 551 days.
