Ten Hag believes Man Utd are on the up ahead of Everton trip<\/h3>\n

Manchester United hero Roy Keane \u201clet off\u201d Everton star Jordan Pickford after the goalkeeper was beaten by Alejandro Garnacho\u2019s sensational bicycle kick on Sunday. Garnacho had Red Devils fans purring in awe at Goodison Park as the Red Devils defeated the Toffees 3-0 in the Premier League.<\/p>\n

Garnacho was handed his third consecutive Premier League start by Erik ten Hag as United went in search of their fifth win in six top-flight matches. And the Argentina winger leapt into action with less than three minutes on the clock as he timed a sumptuous bicycle kick to perfection.<\/p>\n

He rose high after Diogo Dalot had crossed the ball into the penalty area. The ball sailed past Pickford in the Everton goal as fans and pundits were able to admire an early contender for goal of the season.<\/p>\n

\u201cAbsolutely amazing\u201d, Keane told Sky Sports at half-time. \u201cBrilliant – we had a great view of it behind as soon as he went up in the air. Really good movement, a great ball from [Victor] Lindelof, good run from Dalot. Obviously [Marcus] Rashford gets it, little ball down the side, very positive in the first few minutes. The ball goes in and we\u2019re thinking \u2018this is in\u2019.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s very hard to talk about it because I\u2019ve never done it in my life. But when he does it, the contact he makes, his skill levels\u2026 As soon as it left his foot – we were right behind it. I\u2019m usually critical of goalkeepers – I\u2019ll let him off on this one. A brilliant goal and a brilliant start from United.\u201d<\/p>\n

Keane\u2019s former United team-mate Gary Neville had already given the goal his seal of approval during his Sky Sports commentary duties. And the former England international even claimed the strike was better than the bicycle kick Wayne Rooney scored against Manchester City in 2011.<\/p>\n

\u201cI can\u2019t believe it\u201d, Neville exclaimed. \u201cI don’t think I’ve ever been in a stadium where I’ve seen an overhead kick that good. And I was there for Rooney’s against Man City.\u201d<\/p>\n
