Manchester United’s late winner against West Ham resulted in a wave of delirium radiating across Old Trafford, but no one looked as ecstatic as Edinson Cavani.
The influential 34-year-old came off the bench to give Marcus Rashford a tap-in in the 93rd minute.
The Uruguayan linked up with fellow substitutes Rashford and Anthony Martial to ensure the Reds picked up a crucial three points ahead of the international break.
As the England international tapped the ball home, United’s number 21 showcased all his passion and love the club, as he celebrated like he was the man scoring the goal.
But that’s exactly what the former Paris Saint Germain man is all about, the ultimate team player who revels and celebrates his teammates success as much as his own individual plaudits.
Cavani’s energy, exemplary commitment and work rate are contagious and keeping him fit for the final four months of his time at Old Trafford will be crucial to our chances of success.
After missing the midweek win against Brentford with ‘muscular problems’, it was great to see El Matador back available.
Highlighting his love the club and his traits of being the ultimate team player, Cavani sent a passionate message to fans after the dramatic win against the Hammers.
Cavani’s post saw teammates Rashford and Juan Mata show their love for the Uruguayan international.
With Edinson Cavani having two crucial World Cup qualifiers for his nation in the coming days, Ralf Rangnick will no doubt be hoping his influential forward comes through the matches unscathed.
