Well that escalated quickly.

Manchester United produced a memorable comeback on Monday Night Football and in-form striker Romelu Lukaku summed up how every Manchester United fan was feeling in the final minutes.

Andros Townsend and Patrick van Aanholt gave Crystal Palace an unexpected 2-0 lead at half-time, but second half strikes from Chris Smalling, Romelu Lukaku and Nemanja Matic sealed an important win for Mourinho' men.

Lukaku, who scored the equaliser with a composed finish, couldn't contain his excitement when Matic smashed in a 30-yard thunderbolt.

Rather than celebrate with his teammates, the Belgian forward reacted by punching the ground and praying to the heavens.

Now this is what you call passion, folks.
