The 18-year-old young star gave an impressive performance and received praise from the fans.
Manchester United defeated Lyon in a close game in Edinburgh thanks to a superb effort by Donny Van de Beek in the second half. After this goal, NHM lavished accolades on the Dutch midfielder. The young star Kobbie Mainoo, though, was another name who also put on an amazing display.
The 18-year-old was deployed as a defensive midfielder by Erik ten Hag in the first half and showed the necessary certainty.
Statistics show that Mainoo owned 48 touches and ended the game with a pass accuracy rate of up to 94% with 33 passes to teammates out of a total of 35 attempts.
Mainoo attempted to dribble once and completed it successfully, finishing the game with a long pass to the correct address.
The English player has a straightforward but powerful style of play. Additionally, he demonstrated maturity by always being in hot places and covering the defense. In this encounter, Mainoo had two interceptions and one of the two duels that were successful.
He came in second to Amad Diallo on Sofascore with 7 points.
