The Chilean’s decision-making earned plaudits from his manager for his debut performance in the FA Cup on Friday
Jose Mourinho has suggested that Alexis Sanchez’s experience and maturity allows him to do what “nervous” Marcus Rashford cannot following his successful debut in Manchester united’s 4:0 FA cup win against Yeovil town.
The Chile international recovered from a shaky opening half-hour at Huish Park on Friday to play a part in both of United’s opening goals, scored by Rashford and Ander Herrera.
Jesse Lingard and Romelu Lukaku added late strikes to give Mourinho’s side a comfortable victory and book their place in the fifth round of the competition.
