He said: "It's unbelievable. When I started the game I was so nervous, I swear. Maybe it didn't show but I was.
"I didn't expect to do that, to score two goals. Maybe one but not two. Of course, I'm happy to score the goals, I won't deny that, but the most important thing is the team.
"I belong to Manchester United. I arrived here at 18-years-old, they treated me unbelievably and this is why I came back. I'm so proud to be here and I want to win.
"Everyone knows that the football here in England is different than any part of the world. I've played everywhere and, to be honest, England is the most special one...
