AWESTRUCK Alejandro Garnacho’s overhead miracle goal was praised by Manchester United teammates as “better than Rooney’s” according to the winger himself.

Garnacho posted a split photo of his twisting opener in Sunday’s 3-0 win at Everton including his idol Ronaldo’s 2018 goal.

For Alejandro Garnacho, sharing a photo of Cristiano Ronaldo’s goal was the ultimate comparison.

Club and nation teammate Martinez praised Garnacho.

Red Devils icon Gary Neville called the Argentinian’s overhead goal the best he’s ever seen, including Rooney’s 2011 winner against Manchester City.

Garnacho, 19, said, “I couldn’t believe I scored it, to be honest.

“I just listened to the audience and said, ‘Oh my God’ without seeing how I scored. I’m happy with one of my best goals.”

He captioned a photo of the goal “Boom” on X and posted a double photo of his and Ronaldo’s strikes on Instagram.Ron’s goal helped Real Madrid beаt Juventus in the quarterfinals five years ago and win the Champions League.

After Garnacho’s claim, United manager Erik ten Hag said: “It was probably the goal of the season—a magnificent moment.”

Right defender Diogo Dalot requested the adolescent to attend the world goal of the year honors with him.

Dalot said “Take me with you to that Puskas Gala please… unbelievable Hermano!”

Observing his recovery, Red Devils center defender Lisandro Martinez wrote: “Well done Hermano, proud of you.”

Neville of Sky Sports said, “I’ve never seen a better overhead kιck in a stadium.

“And I was there for Rooney’s against Man City.”

Social media fans labeled Garnacho’s conclusion “the coldest moment of the season”.

Other comments: “Magical finish”… “sensational”… “absolutely incredible”.

Viewers also believe Garnacho’s rise indicates how much he has learned from Ronaldo.

Another said, “Following in the footsteps of his idol” and “That’s Ron’s influence”.

Adding, “Just like Ronaldo’s goals, this will last long in the hearts of me𝚗.”

Even Roy Keane, usually joking, couldn’t resist.

Garnacho imitated a Wayne Rooney goal and Ronaldo’s celebration.

Garnacho opened scoring at Goodison Park with a twist.

He said: “I’ve never done it, so talking about it is hard!

“I’m generally harsh on goalkeepers, but this one was great, and United started well. Brilliant goal.”

Marcus Rashford and Anthony Martial scored in the tҺrilling conclusion.

Ten Hag advised against judging Garnacho by Ronaldo’s standards too soon.

The Dutchman advised against comparison. Garnacho must work hard to go that route.

“You must do it consistently, and he has not. You must score 20-25 goals per season to be Rooney or Ronaldo.

This overhead goal by Wayne Rooney sank Man City in 2011.
