Ronaldo had recently moved to Manchester United – the club he made his name for from Italian champions Juventus. From United, the Portuguese superstar went to Spanish giants Real Madrid.
Back in his favorite role for United after a 12-year hiatus, CR7 needed the first half to advance as he opened the scoring for United in the time of injury in the first half.
After missing a few half-chances, Ronaldo scored his first goal when he took advantage of an opportunity after Newcastle keeper Freddie Woodman dropped the ball inside the six-yard box on Mason Greenwood’s attempt. Ronaldo reacted quickest and tapped the ball into the goal to make it 1-0 for United.
12 years 124 days ago Ronaldo scored his 84th and last goal for Manchester United.
