Lukaku was the Reds hero at Turf Moor on Sunday afternoon as his first-half double was enough to secure Jose Mourinho’s men the vital three points, despite Paul Pogba missing a second-half penalty and Marcus Rashford seeing red after an off-the-ball incident with former United defender Phil Bardsley.
The no.9 was delighted with the performance and feels the victory proves the Reds have a great deal of mental strength, following a tough run of results.
“In the first half we showed a lot of quality and in the second half we showed a lot of character and mentality,” Romelu told MUTV.
