“We Can Beat Any Team In Any Given Day” – Ronaldo After Hat-trick Against Spurs
Manchester United star Cristiano Ronaldo rolled back the years to masterfully guide the Red Devils to a 3-2 win at home over Antonio Conte’s Tottenham Hotspur.
Ronaldo dominated the game and bagged a hat-trick to keep United’s Champions League qualification hopes alive heading into the final stretch of the season.
After the match, the Portuguese goal scorer took to Instagram to send a message to his fans and a warning to his rivals. He posted:
“Tremendously happy with my first hat-trick since I came back to Old Trafford! Nothing beats the feeling of being back on the pitch and help the team with goals and effort. We’ve proven once again that we can beat any team in any given day, as long as we work hard and stand together as one. There are no limits for Man United! No matter what! Let’s go, Devils!”
Cristiano Ronaldo was simply unplayable on the day, firing United ahead on three occasions to help them clinch a win against their determined opposition.
He bagged his first goal with a long-range screamer that left Hugo Lloris stranded, before scoring a close range finish, and a header to complete his scoring.
His goals on the day now take his Premier League goal tally to 12 for the season, 8 behind Mohamed Salah, with 9 games left for the Red Devils. More importantly, Cristiano Ronaldo has cemented himself as the highest goal scorer of all time, with today’s game taking his career tally to an eye-watering 807 goals.
Man United hold onto top-four hopes, thanks to Cristiano Ronaldo
A subpar season has seen the Red Devils falter dramatically, leading to the eventual sacking of club legend Ole Gunnar Solskjaer. With Ralf Rangnick now managing affairs at Old Trafford, the club has risen the ranks into Champions League qualification spots.
However, the Red Devils have to remain cautious about Arsenal, who are right at their heels. The Gunners have played just 25 games, while United have played 29. To the certain worry of the Manchester United faithful, Arsenal is just two points behind. Their impressive form could see them win their games in hand and overtake the Red Devils.
United will have to rely on Cristiano Ronaldo’s goalscoring qualities to maintain their winning form, but they will also hope that other results go in their favour as well. If Arsenal fails to maintain their top form, United will have a strong chance of finishing in fourth place.
