When Ronaldo scored for Manchester United against Everton in the Premier League, he became the only football player in the history of the game to score 700 goals. With this goal, he has brought his long-time goal drought to an end. Ronaldo fans will be hoping he scores more goals in the build-up to the World Cup in Qatar.
Manchester United is rejoicing Ronaldo’s goal against Everton
Ronaldo scored this goal after a long time. It came in the 44th minute of the first half of the game. Manchester United conceded in the first five minutes of the game. Alex Iwobi secured the goal for Everton from the edge of the box with a lightning strike.
Antony pulled one back in the fifteenth minute. Ronaldo stepped up to the pitch in the 29th minute as a replacement for Anthony Martial. The Portuguese forward and his old Real Madrid team-mate Casemiro joined up in the build-up to the goal.
In the second half, Casemiro tried his luck and almost got his name on the scoresheet. This was followed up by Rashford’s goal which was denied after the VAR check. He committed a handball in the build-up to the goal. Everton came close to scoring an equalizer but was denied by de Gea.
The seven-time Ballon d’Or has scored nine goals more than Messi. He has scored these goals over a period of time playing for Manchester United, Juventus, Real Madrid, and Sporting CP.
Red Devils move to the fifth spot
Erik Ten Hag’s side won this match 2-1 at Goodison Park. With this win, Red Devils moved to the fifth position in the Premier League table with just one point behind Chelsea who is in the fourth position.
They would be playing next against Cypriot club Omonia in the second leg of the Europa League. On the weekend, the Red Devils will be playing against Newcastle United at Old Trafford.
