Antony sets Premier League record on Manchester United debut

Marcus Rashford’s double and a debut goal for Antony secured Manchester United a fourth successive victory as a 3-1 win ended Arsenal’s perfect start to the Premier League on Sunday.

Deadline-day signing Antony was handed a start after only joining on Thursday and took just 35 minutes to score his first goal, the $95million arrival from Ajax coolly dispatching a left-footed effort. Antony‘s Manchester United career is off to the perfect start after he scored on his debut against Arsenal.

The Brazil international netted in the 35th minute to send United fans wild, and even had Cristiano Ronaldo applauding from United’s bench. Antony set a record in Manchester United’s win, as the youngest Brazilian to ever score on his Premier League debut. Considering a lot of Brazilian players have played in the competition, this is a notable landmark for the winger to set. The former Ajax star is just 22 years and 192 days, which makes him the youngest Brazilian to get on the scoresheet in his first Premier League appearance.
