Hannibal Mejbri produced a moment of magic as he scored a stunning free-kick for Birmingham City against West Brom.

Mejbri, who's on loan from Manchester United for the season, showed off his quick-thinking to put his side in the lead in their Championship fixture on Friday.

Standing over a free-kick in the 10th minute, the 20-year-old spotted West Brom goalkeeper David Button exposing a big gap at his near post.

And the Tunisia international brilliantly took advantage as he curled a superb effort into the back of the net to make it 1-0.

Man United fans on social media loved Mejbri's goal and reckon next season could be his year.

Another commented: "Thought this lad had a bit about him when he come on against Liverpool at the end of last season."

Mejbri also registered an assist as he swung in an inviting corner kick for Krystian Bielik, who headed home to make it 2-0.

The budding midfielder has played 24 league games this campaign, having moved to St. Andrew's last summer.

He made his senior debut for the Red Devils in a 2-1 win over Wolves in the final Premier League game of the season back in May 2021.

Mejbri featured in two league games for Man United last season as he enjoys game-time at Birmingham this campaign.
