Sabitzer netted two goals, one of which was a sensational free-kick, and contributed one assist as Austria cruised to a 4-1 victory at the Raiffeisen Arena. He also captained his side on the night.
Sabitzer can’t stop scoring
Prior to jetting off on international duty, Sabitzer opened his United goalscoring account by providing a crucial goal to put the Reds ahead in the FA Cup quarter-finals against Fulham.
He has continued to impress since arriving at Old Trafford on deadline day and has left many supporters hopeful that United may make his loan deal permanent at the end of the season, with Bayern Munich reportedly open to overseeing his exit.
