"He’s knocking on the door to get his first appearance," United caretaker manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer said when asked about Greenwood earlier this month. Well if he was knocking a few weeks ago, Greenwood may well have broken the door down with his winner on the stroke of half-time of extra time. After Di’Shon Bernard equalised to force an extra thirty minutes of action, Greenwood again showed off stunning technique by guiding the ball to the goalkeeper's other side and sending United through to the semi-finals. https://twitter.com/MUnitedFRVideos/status/1089148606517514241 That was the 17-year-old's 24th goal of the season and it's definitely only a matter of time before we see Greenwood lining out for the senior team. "As Sir Matt [Busby] once said, ‘if they’re good enough, they’re old enough’," Solskjaer said when asked about his youth policy when he replaced Jose Mourinho last month. https://twitter.com/ManUtd/status/1089156407545524226His first goal ? pic.twitter.com/klqvzrLV5d
