Erik Ten Hag was pleased to see Cristiano Ronaldo on target as Manchester United kickstarted their Europa League campaign with a comfortable victory over Sheriff Tiraspol in Moldova. Ronaldo struck with a 39th-minute penalty as United claimed their first points of the group stage with a routine 2-0 victory on Thursday. It was Ronaldo's first goal of the season from only his third start after a disrupted summer in which he had hoped to move away from Old Trafford. The Portuguese missed Ten Hag's first pre-season tour as United boss for personal reasons and was then the subject of speculation about his future until the transfer window closed. That contributed to his slow start but Ten Hag has no doubts about his commitment. The Dutchman said in his post-match press conference: "We could expect this when you miss pre-season so he has to work really hard and invest to get the right fitness then he will score more goals. "You can see he is really close when he gets fitter he will finish them. I think (he is) totally committed to this project and totally committed to this team, totally involved. "You see also connections coming around him and he is constructing connections so I am happy with that." He added on MUTV: "He needed that goal. He was close many times. You (could) see he wanted that so much (but) every time a foot was in between or it got a deflection or a misunderstanding. "We're happy for him and the team wanted him to bring the goal, so that's good."
