In a Facebook post, the winger was however quick to downplay the landmark, insisting it’s more about the team.
“Very happy with this win and for getting us back on track in the Premier League. Like I said before, individual achievements are only worth it when they help us reach our goals as a team, and the 60th hat-trick in my career is so much more important because it brought us the 3 points. Well done, lads, tremendous effort from everyone. We’re not giving up, we’re fighting until the end,”
Up next for United is a Premier League clash against sworn rivals, Liverpool, on Tuesday night.
