Nigerian-born youngster Chido Obi-Martin scores hat-trick on Manchester United debut
Danish player of Nigerian descent Chido Obi-Martin, scored a hat-trick in the first 15 minutes of the match against Nottingham Forest at Carrington to mark his complete debut for Manchester United's Under-18 team on Saturday, October 26, 2024.
The former Arsenal youngster, who completed a move to Old Trafford last month, was rewarded with his first start following a 27-minute cameo appearance against Sunderland last weekend.
Chido-Obi scores a hat-trick for Manchester United
The 16-year-old quickly proved his worth by scoring for United 13 seconds into the game jumping on a poorly executed back ball and tapping into an empty net.
Four minutes later, the striker, wearing the No. 9 shirt, scored his second goal with a low attempt into the bottom corner.
Just 14 minutes into the game he scored inside the box to complete his hat-trick.
Obi Martin had a fantastic chance to score United's fourth goal of the match a few minutes later, but his shot was saved.
Shortly before halftime, United increased their lead by first scoring a fourth goal through James Scanlon.
Amir Ibragimov scored a fifth goal with a close-range bundle to give Manchester United a comfortable lead at the break.
At halftime, Obi-Martin was substituted by Victor Musa in what was an impressive performance.
Jim Thwaites' outstanding free kick in the closing moments gave United a sixth goal to seal a comfortable win.
