Anthony Martial came off the bench to score on his Manchester United debut in a 3-1 win over Liverpool as they went second

Anthony Martial announced himself to the Premier League with a superb solo goal on his Manchester United debut against Liverpool.

Questions had been asked about the £36m fee, rising to £58m, that United paid for the young French striker but he answered them in the best possible way by scoring a lovely goal in front of the Stretford End to seal a 3-1 home win for United on Saturday night.

After all the hype, Anthony Martial delivered a debut goal to savour, writes Adam Bate.

The 19-year-old picked up the ball on the left, cut inside and twisted Martin Skrtel inside out before keeping his composure to slot the ball past Simon Mignolet and into the far corner in a style of another well-known former Premier League front man.
