The Frenchman secured a personal feat by scoring thrice in the clash with Sheffield United.

Manchester United forward Anthony Martial has beaten his personal best record for goals scored in a single campaign by registering his side's first Premier League hat-trick in seven years against Sheffield United.

The 24-year-old Frenchman fired the Red Devils ahead by grabbing his 18th goal of the season just seven minutes after kick-off. The move began with Marcus Rashford working his way past into the visitors penalty area and squaring the ball to Man Utd's No.9 who was waiting to slot home.

In effect, the latter took his tally for the season to 12, making this season the best goal-scoring campaign of his Premier League career. Watch the first goal below:

With two minutes of the first 45 minutes left to play, the former AS Monaco starlet doubled United's advantage. This time, the striker simply redirected a low cross from Aaron Wan-Bissaka into the opposition's goal. Watch the second goal below:

In the 75th minute, a brilliant move involving Bruno Fernandes and Marcus Rashford resulted in Anthony Martial grabbing his first career hat-trick for Manchester United with a lovely chip. Watch the goal below:

Interestingly, the Frenchman's hat-trick was the Red Devils' first in the Premier League since Sir Alex Ferguson retired. Robin van Persie was the last player to manage the feat for the club against Aston Villa in 2013.

The day's goals took the Martial's tally for this Premier League season to 14, and his overall goal contribution in 35 appearances to 24 (19 goals and 5 assists). So far, the striker has scored seven times in his last eight appearances.
