Scores goal against Brentford Elanga scored a goal and created a chance in Wednesday's 3-1 victory against Brentford.

Impact Elanga opened the scoring Wednesday with his first goal of the season, coming off the back of his dangerous attacking performance last weekend against Aston Villa. The 19-year-old has been used sparingly by United's senior team so far, only appearing in cup matches until December, but he is showing his talent now that he's been given a chance. He could be utilized a lot more by manager Ralf Rangnick during the second half of the campaign.
