What a goal it would have been but, still, the skill alone is good enough for it to go viral more than 15 years later.

Following a brilliant team performance from Erik ten Hag’s side, it would be a surprise to see Ronaldo on the teamsheet for their trip to Southampton on Saturday lunchtime.

However, any suggestions that Ronaldo doesn’t fit into this United side were quickly dismissed by Ten Hag following their victory over Liverpool.
