MARTIAL MAKING UNITED FANS HAPPY
Anthony Martial wants to repay the Manchester United supporters who handed him the Goal of the Season award on Monday night by winning the Emirates FA Cup for them.
Thousands of fans voted for his sensational debut effort against Liverpool as the best strike of 2015/16, after it was included in the original shortlist of 10 on ManUtd.com and then the final four on Twitter.
"It feels absolutely great to have won this honour," said Martial, in an exclusive MUTV interview after collecting his trophy.
"I just hope I can score many more goals in the future for Manchester United.”
If Liverpool conceded the Frenchman's best goal, then Everton were on the receiving end of his most significant one - the injury-time winner in the FA Cup semi-final at Wembley. Anthony's now itching to return to the national stadium for the final on 21 May and this time bring back a trophy as well as some treasured memories for all concerned.
“I can’t wait to go back there and try to win the cup," he admitted. "I really hope we manage to win some silverware and obviously with that make the fans happy with the result.”
In the meantime, the result of the Twitter poll for Goal of the Season has made Martial happy as he follows Juan Mata in winning the award with a sublime finish at Liverpool's expense. It was also the first of his 15 strikes for the club so far and he admits he "couldn't have picked a better one" when it comes to account-opening scenarios
