Cristiano Ronaldo & Nemanja Matic's sons recreate Man Utd's goal v Chelsea

On Thursday evening, Cristiano Ronaldo was once again Manchester United‘s saviour.

Just two minutes after Marcos Alonso opened the scoring for Chelsea at Old Trafford, the five-time Ballon d’Or winner responded with a brilliant goal of his own.

Ronaldo latched onto a beautiful lofted pass from Nemanja Matic and then rifled the ball past Edouard Mendy on the half volley.

The finish from the 37-year-old was superb and the first touch he produced to setup his 17th Premier League goal of the campaign was arguably even better.

It was a rare positive moment for United fans in what’s otherwise been a miserable season overall.

To make the goal even better, Ronaldo and Matic’s sons have recreated it and the footage – which quickly went viral on Friday evening – is just so heartwarming.
