Alex Telles has just scored an incredible volley to bring Manchester United level against Villarreal in the Champions League.
Paco Alcacer put the Spanish outfit ahead eight minutes into the second half after dominating the first period.
United then started to put pressure on and on the hour mark, Telles brought Old Trafford unglued with a moment of magic.
Bruno Fernandes floated a lovely free-kick to the edge of the area and Telles smashed home emphatically for his first United goal.
What a time to score your first Man Utd goal!

My God. Telles. Astonishing goal. United's strategy seems to make something out of nothing. They have done a lot of nothing. That was some something

Arjen Robben or Alex Telles?
Almost a carbon copy of the famous volley Robben scored against United all those years ago. Incredible strike. Big goal for United who were looking a bit short of ideas.

Telles started ahead of Luke Shaw after the latter came off with an injury during Saturday's 1-0 defeat to Aston Villa.
It's United's first goal in over 200 minutes of football and they'll be desperate to get their second win in five games.
David de Gea made a number of saves in the first half to keep the scores level before Alcacer finally beat the Spain international.
Victory for United is vital after losing their first game in Group F against Young Boys earlier this month.
