Harry Wilson did Torres' 'five times' celebration vs Man Utd

Harry Wilson scored a masterpiece of a free kick against Manchester United in the Carabao Cup as Derby County brushed off the Premier League giants to reach the next round.

Wilson joined the Rams on loan in the summer from Liverpool, and he's been impressing so far.

He even channelled a former Liverpool player in his celebration, as he mirrored a celebration Fernando Torres used to do against United. Wilson also just happens to look a bit like the Spaniard.

The 'five times' celebration is referencing how many times Liverpool have won the Champions League. It's a bit of a dig at Manchester United supporters, since they've only won the European competition three times.

Jurgen Klopp and the rest of the Liverpool staff will be watching Wilson's progress with great interest as he competes in the Championship, where Derby are sitting in 6th place.

Derby County pulled off a historic win over Manchester United, which saw Rams boss Frank Lampard get one over on his old manager at Chelsea, Jose Mourinho.

After the equalising goal, United keeper Romero was sent off, and Derby scored again to make it 2-1. However, a late goal in injury time from Marouane Fellaini took the game to penalties.

Spot kick after spot kick went in, until Phil Jones stepped up for Manchester United. With the shootout in sudden death, his poor penalty sent United crashing out of the cup.

'I know we are a good team. We knew we wanted to come here, play our football and go toe-to-toe with United and we came out on top,' said Wilson.

Speaking about his goal, he said: 'It was one of them so it was a bit far out to curl it, I put my laces through it and it was nice. I try and do it in training! We were disappointed to concede early but I thought we grew into the game.'

Then, speaking about the penalty shootout, which Wilson also scored in, he said: 'It’s the pressure of a penalty shootout, the United fans wanted to give them the edge but the lads dealt with it well and put them away.'
