About this goal
Sanchez slips inside two weak United challenges before unleashing a powerful shot in to David De Gea's top left corner.
Ratings
Aesthetically Pleasing 19/30
The shot slams into the net at great speed but the attempts at defending are particularly clumsy.
Technical Difficulty 17/30
The prior dribble isn't perfect and the shot isn't particularly far from goal.
Uniqueness 12/20
A great example of Sanchez's determination, if he is given free reign to run through United's defence.
Importance 9/10
An early goal in a resounding win over Man United
Standard of Opposition 8/10
MANCHESTER UTD
FootballCritic Verdict
A great player, and a lovely goal, but nothing that Sanchez himself hasn't done on countless occasions.
