MANCHESTER UNITED fans were left stunned after Leny Yoro blocked a shot on the floor with his HEAD against Lyon in the Europa League quarter-final second leg.
With Lyon battling to get back into the match after going 2-0 down, Malick Fofana cut into the United box from the left and looked to move past the 19-year-old French centre-back.
Yoro appeared to lose his balance and subsequently fell to the floor.
But he somehow managed to block the shot with his head.
Fans were left completely baffled, with one person taking to social media to write: “LENY YORO SAVED IT WITH HIS HEAD!”
Another said: “Leny Yoro just gets it man.”
While a third commented: “MY CENTRE BACK.”
Meanwhile, other fans likened it to the iconic head-first challenge made by Phil Jones against Arsenal during his time at Old Trafford.
One said: “Leny Yoro going full Phil Jones!!”
While another wrote: “VIDIC AND PHIL JONES WOULD BE PROUD.”
