Manchester United defender Axel Tuanzebe breaks the internet after pocketing Arsenal star Alexis Sanchez
There was no debate when it came to the one bright spot for Manchester United on a disappointing afternoon at Arsenal.
Axel Tuanzebe made his Premier League debut one to remember, coming out the undisputed winner in his personal duel with Alexis Sanchez.
Both his teammates and fans were quick to notice that Sanchez, one of Arsenal's better players this season under Arsene Wenger, was unable to escape the Rochdale lad's pocket for the 90 minutes.
And his display compared most favourably against those around him, more senior in years and experience, who were shown up by the teenager's energy and smart reading of the game.
Jose Mourinho was far from the only to praise one of the latest academy graduates, with fans taking to social media in their droves in an attempt to get the word "pocket" and "pocketed" to trend.
Watching on from home, teammate DJ Buffonge was among the first to proudly comment at seeing such an accomplished display from his mate.
