In the end. Cristiano Ronaldo found the goal after more than four months in the clash between Manchester United and Sheriff Tiraspol for Group E of the Europa League. The Portuguese champion scored the second goal for the team led by Dutchman Erik ten Hag.
Jadon Sancho broke the tie when it was played in the 17 ‘, but United did not stop the car and in the last minutes of the first half he found a penalty that Cristiano Ronaldo changed by goal.
In the 39th minute Cristiano Ronaldo got in front of the ball and with a sublime definition in the center of the goal he overcame the resistance of the local goalkeeper Maksym Koval. The five-time Ballon d’Or winner congratulated his teammates.
‘CR7’ hadn’t scored since May 2, when they scored in Manchester United’s victory over Brentford in the 2021-22 Premier League.
Manchester seeks recovery
Manchester United’s Europa League debut was not the best after the defeat at Old Trafford to Real Sociedad. For this reason, he is forced to take a win when he visits former team of Peruvian central defender Gustavo Dulanto.
