But Mainoo didn't start his side's remarkable Europa League victory over Lyon but made a huge impression when he entered the fray.

He curled home a terrific strike to make it 4-4 on the night before Harry Maguire grabbed the winner in stoppage time.

On his goal, he told TNT Sports "It was an amazing comeback. When I came on, I tried to bring energy, contribute to the team, carry on the energy and feed off the other players."

Today (April 19) marks the end of Mainoo's teenage days, having turned 20.

Mainoo was born in Greater Manchester and graduated from Man United's famed youth academy before breaking into the first-team.

He has played 63 games for the club, scoring seven goals since making his senior debut for his boyhood team.

Even though Mainoo has established himself as a key player, his future has been the subject of intense transfer speculation.

He has two years left on his existing Man United deal as he holds out for a pay rise in line with his teammates.
