Anthony Martial scored his first senior hat-trick as Manchester United cruised past Sheffield United at Old Trafford.
Robin van Persie was the last United player to score a treble in the league and that was back in 2013.
The result moves United to within two points of fourth-placed Chelsea, who entertain Manchester City on Thursday. Ole Gunnar Solskjaer side still continues to push for a top four finish and to open a gap between themselves and Chris Wilder’s side.
