Manchester United midfielder Kobbie Mainoo was delighted to get his first senior goal.

The pass master struck to give United a two goal lead in a 4-2 win over Newport County.

Mainoo scored in the 13th minute, guiding the ball into the bottom corner after a smart pass from Diogo Dalot.

"Thank you," he told MUTV post-game.

"It's a big point in my career. Obviously, coming in and to score my first goal. I've been dreaming of this moment for a long time. It's been amazing."

"It's just back to basics," he added.

"We have great players who can create a goal at any time.

So, at 2-2 [after being 2-0 up], it was never a panic. Just get back to the things we're good at. It's 0-0 [then in our heads] so we can always go and score more."
