Marcus Rashford and Harry Maguire were among those to congratulate Lingard, while loanees Diego Dalot and Tahith Chong plus former teammate Timothy Fosu-Mensah also responded.
Lingard’s performance was a reminder he is too good to be sat on the bench.
Often in the first half of the season, Lingard failed to get that far, often failing to make United’s match day squad.
It is important for him to get playing again for the sake of his career. Lingard could even have a shot of making the Euro 2021 squad with England, especially if he carries on playing like this.
