Oscar Bobb scores his first Norway goal with outrageous finish, Man City have a gem on their hands

The Manchester City starlet is going to be a huge name.

Manchester City youngster Oscar Bobb has scored his first goal for Norway in this evening's friendly against the Faroe Islands.

Bobb received the ball on the edge of the box before managing to ride a defender's challenge.

The winger spotted an opportunity to smash a left-footed effort past Bardur a Reynatrod in the Faroe Islands' net, who didn't move a muscle as Norway made it 2-0.

It could be a promising season for Bobb. The 20-year-old made his Premier League debut in September's 5-1 win over Fulham, playing a vital role in City's fifth goal that afternoon.

City opted to sell Riyad Mahrez and Cole Palmer in the summer, which opens up opportunities for Bobb on the flanks.

Jeremy Doku was their only signing in attack, while Julian Alvarez is playing in midfield due to Kevin De Bruyne's long-term injury.

He registered his first Premier League assist in a 6-1 win over Bournemouth earlier this month.

Bobb fizzed in a lovely cross which Nathan Ake managed to turn in against his former side.



In an interview with City's official website, Bobb revealed how working with manager Pep Guardiola on a regular basis is helping him develop as a footballer.

He explained: "He’s a perfectionist so we can always do better.

"You see a new way to play the game and everything seems so simple.

"It’s very good motivation. It’s the place where you want to be. It definitely motivates me."

Guardiola praised the youngster back in September and confirmed he'll be getting a significant amount of minutes throughout the campaign.

He confirmed: "He is dynamic, he has a good shot, he has courage. He lost two balls, he has to improve to not do it in the final third but sometimes, it happens. But see his personality, he’s not shy. Incredible work ethic, so aggressive without the ball.

"I have the feeling that some players like Cole Palmer, [James] McAtee and Riyad [Mahrez] left, he will have a lot a lot minutes. He has to be ready to use it."
