Former Hattersley FC youngster Anthony Elanga is fast becoming a fans' favourite at Old Trafford.

The 19-year-old scored the all-important goal in Manchester United's 1-1 draw with Athletico Madrid in the Champions League on Wednesday night, giving the Red Devils a great chance of progressing ahead of the second leg at Old Trafford. 

In today's Sports Talk, Mark Philip and Betfred's Peter Spencer take a look at the youngster's impact and assess United's chances of going the distance in the competition.

They also preview this weekend's fixtures, which include Manchester City's trip to Everton, Manchester United's home clash against Watford, and the Carbao Cup Final between Chelsea and Liverpool on Sunday.
