Manchester United loanee Amad Diallo opened the scoring for Sunderland against Preston with a sensational long-range effort.
Manchester United fans were full of praises for the player after the winger scored a superb curling effort to inspire his loan club Sunderland into the Championship playoffs.
The 20-year-old has enjoyed a strong loan spell with the Black Cats this season, contributing impressively towards their late promotion push.
Diallo ensured his loan spell would go beyond the final day of the Championship season, with the Ivorian netting a vital goal to help his side earn a play-off spot.
The youngster swept in a first time effort into the top corner of the Preston net, with his shot curling beyond the dive of goalkeeper Freddie Woodman.
Diallo’s strike was lauded by Manchester United fans on social media, with supporters keen to see the winger involved at Old Trafford next season.
We’ve got some player there,’ one fan commented, with another writing ‘This loan deal to the Championship could be the best thing in his career we’ll find out next season.’

Diallo’s 13th goal of the season proved crucial as Sunderland took control of their match against Preston in the second half.
Alex Pritchard and Jack Clarke added to the Black Cats as Tony Mowbray’s side moved into sixth place on the final day of the season.
