When asked about Cristiano Ronaldo’s performance in the clash, Roy Keane replied:
Roy Keane also admitted he was surprised to see Cristiano Ronaldo seal a return to Manchester United this summer but backed the Portuguese to give the Red Devils a much-needed lift to challenge for honors.
He added:
Cristiano Ronaldo scored his 110th and 111th goals for Portugal in their clash with Ireland on Wednesday. That means he’s now become the all-time scorer in men’s international football, beating Ali Daei’s record for Iran (109).
The 5-time Ballon d’Or winner has been released early from the Portuguese team after picking up a suspension. He is now looking forward to making his first appearance for Manchester United this season when the Red Devils clash with Newcastle United on September 11.
Cristiano Ronaldo to lead Manchester United’s charge for silverware
Manchester United invested heavily this summer in signing the likes of Jadon Sancho, Raphael Varane and Tom Heaton. They capped it off with the capture of Cristiano Ronaldo. The Red Devils are looking to displace local rivals Manchester City from the pinnacle of English football and all eyes will be on the Portuguese for inspiration.
Ole Gunnar Solksjaer’s men have recorded two victories and one draw from their three league games this season. They currently occupy the third position on the table.
