“This boy is different from Rashford. The fans where shocked after what he did. He scored a hattrick and he still did that. Rúben Amorim must be very very happy with him”-Man Utd fans spot what Amad did seconds after full-time following hat-trick and it speaks volumes

Manchester United fans have been vocal in their praise after noticing a remarkable gesture from young star Amad Diallo following his hat-trick against Southampton.

Despite an overall lackluster team performance, United secured a vital 3-1 Premier League victory at Old Trafford. The team trailed for much of the game after a first-half own goal by Manuel Ugarte, but Amad’s sensational 12-minute hat-trick in the final stages turned the match around.

Amad’s Post-Match Gesture

After the final whistle, fans were quick to notice Amad’s actions that showcased his character. Instead of immediately heading off for media duties, the Ivorian winger made a point to approach the home crowd, applauding their unwavering support throughout the challenging match. When a staff member reminded him of his media obligations, Amad insisted on first circling the pitch to acknowledge every fan at Old Trafford.

Fans’ Reaction on Social Media

This heartfelt gesture didn’t go unnoticed. Fans took to social media to commend the 22-year-old for his dedication and humility:

• One fan on X wrote, “After this action, he’s already one of my favorite footballers.”
• Another added, “Saw this and I just started smiling. He does everything for the fans. Love it so much.”
• A third fan used the moment to criticize former manager Erik ten Hag, stating, “I still can’t believe Ten Hag was benching this lethal weapon while playing Anthony, Rashford, Garnacho on the right wing. Oh gosh.”

Amad’s Stellar Season

Amad’s hat-trick brought his season tally to nine goals across 30 appearances, matching captain Bruno Fernandes‘ record for the season. Impressively, Amad’s goals came while playing out of position as a wing-back rather than his usual forward role.

Amad’s Post-Match Comments

Reflecting on his performance, Amad expressed his readiness to adapt and contribute wherever needed: “I’m ready to play every position. I’m ready to play right wing-back, No. 10, wherever the manager likes to put me,” Amad said post-match. “I’m ready to fight for this club, so it doesn’t matter where I am. I’m so happy to play where the manager wanted me to play. Scoring a hat-trick was great, but the most important thing is the win for the club.”

Conclusion

Amad’s actions and words have further endeared him to the Manchester United faithful, highlighting not only his growing influence on the pitch but also his deep respect for the club and its supporters. His willingness to adapt and his dedication to the fans are qualities that have made him a standout figure in the team’s challenging season.
