Antoine Semenyo netted his fifth goal of the season as AFC Bournemouth stunned Manchester United at Old Trafford.
The Ghana international smashed home from a Dango Ouattara cutback to give the Cherries a three-goal lead with 23 minutes remaining.
Semenyo has been a handful for the United defence causing trouble for Ruben Amorim's three-back line.
The Cherries got off to a bright start after Dean Huijsen opened the scoring on the half-hour mark.
After the break, the visitors doubled their lead from the spot through Justin Kluivert before Semenyo extended the lead two minutes later.
Semenyo had been on a run of games without a goal and has not scored following the end of the November international break.
His manager, Andoni Iraola, charged him to rediscover his goal-scoring form despite his rich run of form.
The England-born Ghana international has already been attracting interest from clubs in the English Premier League.
However, he is expected to remain until the end of the season.
Semenyo continues red-hot form
After a run of games without a goal, the 24-year-old marked his fifth goal of the campaign against the Red Devils. It was his first goal against the English giants.
Semenyo has been Bouremouth's livewire this season, winning back-to-back Player of the Month awards at the club.
His sensational solo goal against Southampton was also nominated goal of the month in September.
