According to reports, Mason Mount, after two nightmare years at Manchester United, had his brightest night at Old Trafford against Athletic Bilbao, thrilling the fans in the Theatre of Dreams.

During this period, Mount struggled with injuries and poor performances, failing to secure a regular starting spot. However, under Rúben Amorim, he seems to be gradually finding his form and could become a key player for the team.

Coming off the bench when Manchester United was trailing by a goal, Mount showcased his technical brilliance with a precise shot to equalize. United later scored two more goals through Casemiro and Rasmus Højlund, but the highlight of the night was another stunning goal from Mason Mount.

In the 90+1 minute, just as everyone awaited the final whistle, Athletic Bilbao’s goalkeeper rushed out to clear a ball, but his weak clearance fell to Mason Mount near midfield. The number seven star controlled the ball and fired a precise shot into the net, sealing a 4-1 victory and sending United to the UEFA Europa League final with a dominant 7-1 aggregate win. Amorim’s joyful reaction to Mount’s goal caught the fans’ attention.

Mount spoke after the match: “My first goals at Old Trafford. A special night. We go to Bilbao to finish the job. It’s been tough since I arrived, but I stayed positive, knowing good things would come.”
