MANCHESTER UNITED starlet Alejandro Garnacho emulated a legendary Lionel Messi celebration after stunning Fulham with a last-gasp winner.

The winger led the celebrations and decided to remove his shirt and raise it to the crowd in West London.

The teenage sensation mimicked his fellow Argentine Messi, who did the exact same thing in 2017 when he still played for Barcelona.

The now-Paris Saint-Germain superstar led Barca to a stunning 3-2 victory over rivals Real Madrid at the Santiago Bernabeu with a late winner in the second minute of stoppage time.

The seven-time Ballon d’Or winner then removed his shirt and defiantly showed the back of it to the home crowd.
