The 20-year-old scored a spectacular goal in the 82nd minute to hand his side a 3-0 win. He also silenced some critics who questioned his performances against Chelsea.

After the game, Garnacho came over to the fan, gifted him his jersey, and hugged the excited fan as other supporters watched.

Garnacho will likely play a huge role under new coach Ruben Amorim, who will coach his first game against Ipswich Town on November 24 after the international break.

The forward has registered seven goals and four assists in 18 appearances this season, per Transfermarkt.

Fans' reaction to Garnacho's gesture

@DadsThatTravel:

"We really need to see more of it to be honest there is not enough in the modern game."

@uksupermike:

"Brilliant, I don't think players realise how much kids idolise them, they should give their shirts away every game."

@RevDrSAtkins:

."What a fantastic gesture! And what a moment that young supporter will never forget! Football certainly has its moments."

Reason Garnacho didn't celebrate goal

Briefly News earlier reported that Garnacho refused to celebrate his goal against Leicester City, and captain Bruno Fernandes explained why.

The Portugal international said the youngster didn't celebrate because he had lost "faith" among some fans.
