Hannibal embarrasses Wolves defender with brilliant nutmeg in United debut

Hannibal Mejbri produced some memorable moments in his senior debut for Man United in their 2-1 win over Wolves.

One of that came late into added time when United recovered the ball in defence and moved it forward to Mejbri in the halfway line.

The 18-year-old cleverly controlled it and moved forward before seeing Wolves defender Willy Boly rushing in on him.

However, Mejbri displayed impressive awareness to cheekily nutmeg the ball through his legs and move ahead.

Hannibal ended up being fouled after that to stop a dangerous counter-attack for United – but the moment proved how confident the youngster is even at this level.

After his debut, Mejbri reacted on Instagram and wrote: “Amazing experience today. I have worked every day since I joined this club to achieve this dream. This is just the start of my journey and I will continue to work hard to make my family proud.”
