Revealed : Juan Mata jokes about what he said to Cristiano Ronaldo before free-kick winner
Cristiano Ronaldo scored his first free
-kick for Manchester United since his
return to clinch a 3-2 win over Norwich.
The goal capped his 60th hat-trick of
his career, a staggering record.
Ronaldo now has 21 goals this season
in all competitions for United.
United's players have been more active
on social media after the win than in recent
weeks, celebrating the victory.
Ronaldo's free-kick was his first since
one he scored for Juventus in 2020
against Torino.
It was his first free-kick goal for United
since 2009, a winner at Old Trafford over
Manchester City.
Ronaldo now has 12 Premier League
free-kick goals to his name.
Teammate Juan Mata was a second half
substitute and stood over the free-kick with
Ronaldo, before backing away. He joked that
he gave permission to the number 7 to
take his shot.
United's victory meant a more upbeat
group of players, happy to get all three points.
Defeats for Arsenal and Tottenham opens
up the race for a top four place, and gives the
team a bit of hope, despite how much hard
work we made of beating the team in 20th place.
David de Gea, Bruno Fernandes, and Anthony
Elanga were among the stars to send messages
out to fans after the win.
