The 1000th goal
Anthony Martial scored the 1000th goal for Manchester United at Old Trafford

In the topsy-turvy season of 2015-16, which saw Louis van Gaal humiliatingly sacked right after winning the FA Cup, Manchester United hit a new milestone.

Anthony Martial's deflected strike, which helped United win 1-0 against Everton, celebrated a new record for the Red Devils. Since its inception in 1992, Manchester United had now scored 1000 goals at their famous home, thereby becoming the first Premier League side ever to score more than 1000 goals at home - Wayne Rooney bagging 99 of them. A total of 549 goals at that point were scored in the second half.
