Alejandro Garnacho led the counter-attack after Jurgen Klopp‘s side gave the ball away from a corner.

He ran from his own-half and then passed to Diallo, who finished brilliantly into the bottom corner before the 21-year-old winger was given a second yellow card for taking his shirt off.

The goal sparked wild celebrations at Old Trafford that went as high as the commentary box.

BBC Manchester reporter Gaz Drinkwater has gone viral as the United supporter failed to control his emotions live on the radio.

He ended up losing his voice amid the excitement, saying: “Two against one, it’s Garnacho, he has Amad to his left, he find Amad Diallo for United.

“Amad Diallo has won the game for United, one of the most incredible games of football you will ever likely to see and the Theatre of Dreams has erupted.”

Drinkwater was left breathless by the time the ball hit the back of the net and he admitted: “I lost all composure.”

The broadcaster also posted a selfie on social media with his hands over his face in shock.

Fans loved it, with one saying: “The strain on your voice hahahaha.”

Another added: “Brilliant commentary.”

A third wrote: “Love this. What it is all about.”

Drinkwater will be back on the gantry and hoping for more excitement in the semi-final as Man Utd take on Coventry at Wembley.
