You can't beat Boxing Day, can you?

Turkey sandwiches, hangovers, a hidden gem of a present you shamefully wrote off on Christmas and, of course, the football.

For Manchester United fans, Boxing Day is usually even more special. The Red Devils have won more Premier League matches than any side on December 26th. Playing on the date 21 times since the Premier League began, they've won an incredible 18 times and have only lost once.

There have been some classic Man United moments on the date, from famous comeback wins to absolute demolitions.

United fans must be hoping their good Boxing Day form carries on to this year, too, as they face Sunderland at home in Premier League action.

With all those victories, you'd expect there to be some great goals along the way and you'd be right.

Let's take a look at the THREE best Manchester United goals scored on Boxing Day...

Ryan Giggs - Man United 3-0 Nottingham Forest, 26th Dec 1998

This superb team goal capped off a comfortable 3-0 win against Nottingham Forest at Old Trafford in 1998, during Man United's famous treble season.

The passing is sublime and the movement is exceptional but it's Giggs' sweet chip over the goalkeeper that really gives this goal a special edge.

Wonderful!

Cristian Ronaldo - Sunderland 0-4 Man United, 26th Dec 2007

Now a trademark, this free-kick style hadn't quite reached legendary status for Cristiano Ronaldo at this point. He's gone on to do this exact thing many times since, but in 2007 we hadn't come to expect it.

His blast put Manchester United 3-0 up in a 4-0 victory away to Sunderland on Boxing Day 2007. It was an unstoppable effort and a decent signifier that he would go on to become the best player in the world.

This one is worth watching again and again.

"You just don't save those," said the commentator. Quite.

Javier Hernandez - Man United 4-3 Newcastle United, 26th December 2012

A special goal to watch due to the circumstances more than anything, this last minute 'Chicharito' winner was a fabulous Manchester United moment.

The Red Devils had to come from behind three times before finally snatching victory at the death thanks to the striker's smart finish from Michael Carrick's wonderful long, curling pass.

Man United would go on to win the title by eleven points, and it was no surprise given the spirit they had that pushed them to results like this.
