Former Manchester United captain Roy Keane has urged Marcus Rashford to simplify his game and take his opportunity after being handed a rare start.

Cristiano Ronaldo crossed paths with Tom Brady. Ronaldo enjoyed a brilliant night, scoring a scintillating hat-trick to help Manchester United beat Tottenham 3-2 in the Premier League.

Cristiano Ronaldo showed his anger towards Manchester United manager Ralf Rangnick in his match-winning performance in the 3-2 win over Tottenham, according to Roy Keane. Ronaldo moved onto 807 career goals with a brilliant display at Old Trafford which included his 59th hat-trick.He opened the scoring with a thunderbolt into the top corner from 25 yards but an Alex Telles handball allowed Harry Kane to equalise from the penalty spot for Spurs.The 37-year-old gave United the lead once again with a tap-in from Jadon Sancho’s pass before an own goal from Harry Maguire made it 2-2.Ronaldo struck for a final time in the 81st minute, powering in a header from a corner to move United past Arsenal into fourth place in the Premier League.It was a classic performance from the Portuguese superstar – and Keane believes it was born out of frustration with his situation at the club."That’s where United are at, the quality of both teams wasn’t great,” he said on Sky Sports.“But it was entertaining and Ronaldo stepped up to the plate.

Cristiano Ronaldo’s hat-trick inspired Manchester United to a crucial 3-2 victory over Tottenham and ensured he broke yet another goalscoring record, but Richard Keys has cast doubt over the superstar’s latest achievement.The 37-year-old looked back to his devastating best after a fine individual display to score all three goals and boost United’s hopes in the battle for a top-four finish in the Premier League.His first strike was a stunning 25-yard effort that sailed into the top corner past Hugo Lloris to open the scoring and, after Harry Kane equalised from the penalty spot, he restored the advantage just before the break.Jadon Sancho sprung the offside trap to set up Ronaldo for a tap-in, before Harry Maguire’s own goal brought the visitors back level.But it was Ronaldo again who rose to the occasion as he powered a header into the top corner late on to clinch three important points for the Red Devils.That hat-trick, the 59th of his professional career, means that he has now bagged 807 goals in professional football — the most by any player in history.But according to Keys, the former Sky Sports presenter who now hosts beIN Sports’ Premier League coverage in Qatar, Ronaldo’s legitimacy as the record holder can be brought under question by Brazil legend Pele.“It is an extraordinary achievement, 806 goals, whichever way you look at it,” Keys said in a post-match discussion on beIN Sports.“But there is some dispute as to whether it is a record.

Ralf Rangnick looked destined for another frustrating evening at Old Trafford, as Antonio Conte’s side twice came back from a goal behind to level the contest. Ronaldo spectacularly ended his recent goal drought, accepting a neat flick from Fred, before launching a majestic 30 yard effort past a helpless Hugo Lloris.

Roy Keane was left fuming over Manchester United pair Harry Maguire and Raphael Varane wearing gloves but would have let Gary Neville do so.The former United captain admitted ahead of his former side's meeting with Tottenham Hotspur on Saturday that he did not like "big strong centre halves" wearing gloves, even in the warm-up.However, he has no qualms with his full-backs choosing to keep their hands warm both before and during matches.As a result, his old Red Devils team-mate Neville would have got away with wearing gloves during his 11 years playing alongside the Irishman at Old Trafford.Both Maguire and Varane were spotted with gloves on as they warmed up ahead of Saturday night's clash with Spurs, leaving Keane unimpressed.Speaking on Sky Sports, he said: “Are they gloves? Are they wearing gloves? Am I seeing things? That's a great message, that."Presenter Kelly Cates responded by asking: "Maybe they've just got cold hands?"Keane then snapped back by saying: "Two big strong centre-halves.
