All the best stats from Amad’s stunning solo performance π
Amad Diallo pulled off an individual performance for the ages to help Manchester United beat Southampton at the death on Thursday.
The youngster scored a hat-trick in the final 12 minutes of the match to see his side come from 1-0 down to win 3-1 as Old Trafford erupted. And it led to some impressive stats.
After the feat, only Wayne Rooney (21y 4d vs Bolton Wanderers) has scored a Premier League hat-trick for the club at a younger age than Amad.
Additionally, Amad is the first Manchester United player to score a league hat-trick since Cristiano Ronaldo (2022).
He’s put himself alongside more legends than just Rooney and Ronaldo, too.
Amad is the third player in league history to score three times in the final 10 minutes of a game. Funny enough, all of them played for the Red Devils.

This is alongside Ole Gunnar Solskjaer (Nottingham Forest in 1999) and Rooney again (Hull City in 2010).
Then there is more.
Amad has been directly involved in 10 league goals this season and is the first African player to reach that milestone in one season for the club.
And all but one of his six Premier League goals this season for United have been either equalisers (3) or winning goals (2).
Talk about a talent!
