JJ Gabriel becomes Manchester United's youngest goalscorer

15-year-old Manchester United winger JJ Gabriel did not feel intimidated when he entered the club's fortress, Old Trafford, for the first time in his life. JJ, who plays for the under-18 team, increased his tally to 11 goals in 12 matches and wore the number 10 shirt in the absence of K Rooney, son of Manchester United legend Wayne Rooney, and Jesse Lingard, son of former player Michael Carrick. He felt the moment he entered the pitch and came off the pitch elated after scoring the only goal of the match. The young prospect was able to score a goal in the 22nd minute of the team's match against Pittsburgh in the third round of the FA Youth Cup, becoming the youngest player in the club's history to score in the competition.
