Anthony Martial marks Manchester United start with composed finish

For many Manchester United supporters, Anthony Martial's absence in recent weeks has been something of a mystery.

Their star player last season, the Frenchman was moved to United's left wing in the early weeks of the season as Zlatan Ibrahimovic took his position and number nine shirt. Having preferred Marcus Rashford in games against Hull and Leicester Jose Mourinho reinstalled Martial on United's left for the visit of Watford. With a point to prove, it was his cross that set up Juan Mata's first half opener. In the second half, he doubled United's lead. The move started when Henrikh Mkhitaryan played the ball towards Ibrahimovic. The Swede played the ball in the direction of Martial with his first touch... With space to run in to, Ibrahimovic's pass forced Martial wider than he would have liked... It seemed Martial was shaping up to square a pass for one of his teammates... As he dribbled the ball towards the defender, a gap opened up at Heurelho Gomes' near post. Keeping a calm head, Martial slotted the ball home to make the points safe for United. For the first time in weeks, Martial looked happy. Anthony Martial might just have convinced his manager that he's worthy of a regular starting berth.
