Manchester United have blown away Sheffield United thanks to a clinical hat-trick from Anthony Martial. Aside from a brief spell after the first drinks break Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s side have completely dominated. The Bruno Fernandes/Paul Pogba partnership looks to be a fruitful one, while Nemanja Matic deserves a lot of credit for doing the dirty work.
Anthony Martial scored Manchester United’s first Premier League hat-trick since Robin van Persie for Sir Alex Ferguson’s title-winners in April 2013 as Sheffield United were cuffed aside.
It was also the Frenchman’s inaugural career hat-trick, moving to a best ever tally of 19 in all competitions for United, who stretched their unbeaten run to 13 matches and took their points tally to 49 with seven games left, two behind fourth-placed Chelsea, who play Manchester City on Thursday. Of Martial, Ole Gunnar Solskjær said: “I’m very happy for Anthony, it’s a shame he couldn’t celebrate with out fans.”
For this first home game of the restart the manager selected close to United’s strongest side with only Scott McTominay missing: he was rested, Nemanja Matic coming in. This meant Paul Pogba broke a 10-month wait for a league start and was paired in the starting XI with the effervescent Bruno Fernandes for a first time.
In an Old Trafford draped partly in a mosaic made from the 40,000 images uploaded from United fans from 193 countries, United’s opener was slick.
