Cristiano Ronaldo scores a hat-trick to give Manchester United the win! See for yourself

Cristiano Ronaldo used to be a man of big games, but as he gets older, he’s also becoming a player who can make crucial decisions against unpleasant opponents. His two first-half goals didn’t stop Norwich. The Yellow and Green levelled the game at 2: 2, but then came Ronaldo’s cannon from a direct kick and the Red Devils enjoyed a 3: 2 win!

Manchester United are having a very special season. It is a season of successes and fiascos, and the same goes for the star Portuguese. However, the game against Norwich showed that Ronaldo is still a unique footballer.

In the 7th minute he scored a goal from play, in the 32nd minute he scored with a header and the decisive moment came in the 76th minute when he scored from a direct kick. These 3 points, and Tottenham’s and Arsenal’s hesitation, give the Red Devils a chance for the dream 4th place, which ensures participation in the Champions League.

In terms of individual statistics, Cristiano Ronaldo scored his second hat-trick against Norwich in the calendar year 2022. A closer look at the Portuguese legend’s hat-trick numbers is incredible.

Ronaldo has scored at least one hat-trick in every year since 2010. To maintain such scoring form for 12 years at TOP level is a truly breathtaking feat.

Manchester United’s fate in this season’s Premier League will more or less be decided by the next two rounds. On Tuesday, the Red Devils will travel to Liverpool, then at the weekend they will measure their strength with London Arsenal, also on away ground.
