With 17 minutes to go at Old   Trafford, Greenwood had the crowd off their feet with a stirring run and   finish through Eric's legs to win the Group L game.United's  young  side made a vibrant start with Fred's 30-yard strike rattling the   crossbar before Rashford somehow hit a close-range shot straight  at  Eric.Greenwood rifled a powerful drive wide and Rashford  sprung Astana's  offside trap again in the 21st minute but again found  Eric blocking his  way when it looked easier to score.The  17-year-old Greenwood and Chong  both arrived moments too late to convert  Marcos Rojo's low cross as  United tried to step up the tempo at the  start of the second half.A goalmouth melee saw the ball roll  against the outside of Eric's  left-hand post before Rashford thumped a  free-kick just over the  crossbar and Fred's 25-yard set piece was tipped  wide.Eric brilliantly tipped Jesse Lingard's speculative strike  on to the  woodwork with Diogo Dalot failing to convert the rebound,  leaving  Greenwood's moment of magic decisive.</blockquote>
