Manchester United player ratings vs Club Brugge; Wayne Rooney SHINES with BRILLIANT hat-trick

Posted by

RW) Juan Mata

Not the Spaniard’s greatest game in an United shirt, but he was still able to register an assist for Rooney’s hat-trick. 6/10.

LW) Memphis Depay

Brilliant play from the Dutchman to set-up Rooney for the opener, should have netted his third goal of the tie late in the first-half but took one too many touches of the ball. 7/10.

ST) Wayne Rooney

Broke his 10-game goal drought with a composed finish in the 20th minute to effectively end the tie and that seemed to boost his confidence as he scored another just after half-time and completed his hat-trick following a superb pass from Mata. 9/10. MOTM

Substitutes:

Bastian Schweinsteiger

Came on at half-time to help protect the lead, and did exactly that and was also able to create a goal for Herrera with a brilliant pass. 7/10.

Ashley Young

Not much of an impact from the winger, who wasn’t given much time to stake his claim to win his place back in the starting XI. 5/10.

Javier Hernandez

Failed to break United’s penalty jinx late in the game as he failed to hit the target from 12 yards and is unlikely to be taking one anytime soon. 4/10.
