The gradual introduction of Henrikh Mkhitaryan at Manchester United is complete, after the Armenian charged through the centre of Zorya Luhansk's representatives before scoring his first competitive goal for the club in Thursday's Europa League group match.
United was frozen out in the opening stanza in icy Ukraine, but seemed to have thawed after the break, quickly taking the lead through the ex-Borussia Dortmund midfielder's sprint down half the length of the pitch.
That's his first goal for the club and what a strike! He ran from inside the centre-circle before coolly finishing past the goalkeeper.
