Very impressive stuff from Martial considering he had missed a one on one chance early on in the game. Southampton would go on to score the first goal instead. Martial from the first half of the season would have his heads and shoulders dropped by now.

Instead he’s redeemed himself by turning the game on its head.

Earlier in the match, Marcus Rashford scored the equalizer for Manchester United. Martial’s hold up play allowed him to eventually send the ball towards Rashford’s way who finished the job with a brilliant left footed shot into the far corner.
