It may not have been pretty, but Alexis Sánchez scored his first goal as a Manchester United player in his first home game at Old Trafford.
The Chilean ace had the chance to score via a penalty, but his attempt on goal was denied by Jonas Lössl. Moments later, Sánchez sent the rebound into the back of the net, kicking off all celebrations.
Despite having played several times at Old Trafford, Alexis Sánchez hadn't been able to score in the legendary venue. Maybe fate wanted him to score as a Red Devil...

Even some former Manchester United players are quite impressed about Sánchez's performances with the team, which have earned them two wins in three games.
I love the speed of this game. @ManUtd @Alexis_Sanchez the guy has changed the engine and the sharpness of the team. Fantastic player

Nevertheless, there are things to improve for the Chilean ace.
Alexis Sanchez has lost possession of the ball more times against Huddersfield (32) than any other Man United player has in a single Premier League game this season.
