Incredible return to United: Cristiano Ronaldo scored two goals and decided the triumph! – Športky.sk

MANCHESTER – Portuguese footballer Cristiano Ronaldo celebrated his return to Manchester United with two goals. In a 4: 1 victory over Newcastle United in the 4th round of the Premier League, he opened the score in the set time of the first half and in the 62nd minute he also scored the winning goal at 2: 1.

Newcastle came to Old Trafford with a deep defense that the home team could not overcome for a long time. At the end of the first half, however, the goalkeeper of the “side” Frederick Woodman did not keep the shot behind the penalty area and Ronaldo had no trouble reaching the net. After a break in the penalty area, the visitors scored the equalizer for Javier Manquillo, as it was the time of the post.

However, Luke Shaw made a superb strike after 62 minutes with a shot straight in front of the goal after a long ball through the middle, but one of the visitors’ defenders got a foot in at the last second and warded it off for a corner. In the final ten minutes, Bruno Fernandes added two more hits with an export shot and Jesse Lingard took turns at the set time. Slovak goalkeeper Martin Dúbravka from Newcastle was missing from the guest roster due to injury.
