Diallo's 12 Minutes Of Magic Earns Points For Man United

Amad Diallo netted an incredible hat-trick in just 12 minutes as Manchester United came back to defeat Southampton 3-1 on Thursday, narrowly avoiding a disheartening fourth consecutive home loss.

The Ivorian forward, who has been Uniteds standout performer this season , equalised in the 82nd minute and then put the home team ahead just seconds before the end of regular time.

He wasn't finished there, taking advantage of a mistake by Taylor Harwood-Bellis to score a third in stoppage time, making the final score more lopsided than the match suggested.

This was tough luck for a Southampton side struggling to escape the bottom of the Premier League, still having only one victory to show for their efforts. Ivan Jurics squad had rightfully taken the lead with Manuel Ugartes own goal late in the first half, creating several opportunities to add to their advantage.

Yet again, Diallo came to the rescue for a United side that has struggled, having scored the winning goal against Manchester City and the late equalizer versus Liverpool in previous matches.
