Hat-trick from Cristiano Ronaldo gave Manchester United a crucial victory against Antonio Conte’s Tottenham Hotspur on Saturday evening.

The 37-year-old turned back the clock to score a hat-trick and defeat a tenacious Tottenham team at Old Trafford.

Once again, the Spurs will be hating their inconsistency as they missed out the opportunity to secure all three points.

Kane and a Maguire own goal gave the North London side the grit and spirit to come back from down twice, but they couldn’t do it a third and final time.

Man United has moved up to fourth place in the Premier League rankings, two points ahead of Arsenal, who has four games left.

At the moment, they appear to be contenders to finish in the top four, and any club with Ronaldo up front has a shot.

Spurs are now in seventh place, having missed a big opportunity to pass United.

They were completely outmanned in the second half, when they failed to register a single shot on goal.

Then, ahead of the second leg of United’s Champions League showdown with Atletico Madrid at Old Trafford, Ronaldo has bolstered United’s morale.

The Portuguese forward hit 806 career goals and became the all-time leading scorer.

Will the former Real Madrid player send Atletico back to square one? Only time will tell
