Comments:

League position: 4th Manchester United became the first team to win 400 home games in the Premier League (played 572, lost 64). According to FIFA's records, with his second goal in this game, Cristiano Ronaldo became the world's all-time leading goalscorer with his 806th goal for club and country; previously Vienna-born Josef Bican from 1931 to 1955 (805 goals). With his 59th career hat-trick (club and country), aged 37 years and 35 days, Cristiano Ronaldo became the oldest player to score a hat-trick in the Premier League since Teddy Sheringham for Portsmouth against Bolton Wanderers on 26 August 2003 (37 years and 146 days). That was ten days after Cristiano had made his debut in the Premier League for United against Bolton Wanderers.

Comments:
