Manchester United had two teenagers make their first international starts this week.

The Red Devils saw Kobbie Mainoo get a start for England against Belgium on Tuesday.

In addition, 17-year-old James Scanlon earned his senior debut for Gibraltar against Lithuania.

He is the first for the club to ever play for the small European nation, which means Scanlon is a history maker.

United's academy lead Nick Cox will be happy to see his development work paying dividends.
