Garth Crooks has named Manchester United hero Cristiano Ronaldo in his team of the week after his hat-trick against Tottenham Hotspur.
The 37-year-old's treble helped the Reds return to winning ways following their dismal display in the Manchester derby. Ronaldo, who missed that game, returned from a hip-flexor injury to fire United in front.
He had to do it no fewer than three times, as Spurs fought back through a first-half Harry Kane penalty before Harry Maguire's own-goal brought the score level. With the game on a knife-edge, the five-time Ballon d'Or winner sent Old Trafford into raptures rising highest to nod past Hugo Lloris, completing the 49th hat-trick of his glittering career.
