The France forward is the first United player to score a Premier League hat-trick since Alex Ferguson retired as their manager in 2013. United’s first win since the coronavirus hiatus was well deserved as they took advantage of another lethargic display from the Blades, who would have gone above the hosts with a victory.
Once again, he linked up well with Fernandes, the Portugal midfielder who has been a big hit since his January move from Sporting Lisbon, but there will be much sterner tests than the one posed by Chris Wilder’s limp side. Marcus Rashford pounced on a loose ball in the Blades penalty area and, with the visitors’ defence slow to react, he whipped a low cross to Martial, who fired home at the near post.
But the England forward could only manage a woefully miscued effort that drifted wide as he slammed the turf in frustration.
