Cristiano Ronaldo embarrasses Villarreal goalkeeper after a fatal mistake, sets a record and leads Man United to qualify for the Champions League
Portuguese international Cristiano Ronaldo again saved his team from another predicament, this time in the fifth round of the Champions League, as he returned from the land of his Spanish host Villarreal with an exciting victory with two goals to zero, to decide Man United the ticket to the next round, while the conflict remains raging between Villarreal and Atalanta.
In the first match for Manchester United, after the dismissal of Norwegian coach Ole Solskjaer, and the former player and his assistant, Michael Carrick, taking over the task, Manchester appeared better, with Sancho and Dutchman Van de Beek in the starting lineup.
Despite Villarreal's almost absolute control of the match, one mistake from the "yellow submarine" goalkeeper Julie in returning the ball was enough for Ronaldo to score the first goal for his team in the 78th minute, before Sancho added the second with a powerful shot in the 90th minute.
Ronaldo became the first player in the history of Manchester United to score in the fifth consecutive game in the first round of the Champions League, and it is also his sixth goal this season in the competition, and the 139th in the history of the competition that he sits on his throne.
