Some people say that this morning's game was Cristiano Ronaldo's singing at Old Trafford, and in United's 3-0 win over Bradford, Cristiano Ronaldo scored again. This may be Ronaldo's last goal at home to Manchester United, and this game is also a milestone in the career of veteran Cristiano Ronaldo.
When Cristiano Ronaldo scored with a penalty, it was his 350th personal goal since he was 30 years old. For more than 7 years, Ronaldo has scored 350 goals efficiently in 400 games, and the entire world football world can not find a second person. This season, Ronaldo still scored 18 goals in the Premier League, equaling the second highest single-season goal stats of his Premier League career. At the same time, 18 goals are also the oldest player in Premier League history to complete a single season. 350 goals in 400 games, averaging 0.88 goals per game! This is the great record of world football written by Ronaldo after the age of 30!
Even in the more than 3 years after Ronaldo's 35th birthday, he still scored a full 90 goals. Without Ronaldo this season, United may not even be able to defend the European qualification. With just two games left to end the season, Ronaldo's 18 league goals surpassed the 16 Premier League goals scored by five players, Greenwood, Rashford, Cavani, Sancho and Erlanga. One person can top 5 people, and the 37-year-old Ronaldo is still a great top striker in world football.
This season, 14 of his 18 Premier League goals have been made at Home At Old Trafford, the highest number of home goals in the league. Among United's 57 league goals, Cristiano Ronaldo alone accounted for more than 30% of the goals. At present, Manchester United ranks 6th in the Premier League and has basically locked up a Europa League seat. Historically, United's worst season record in the Premier League can also reach 64 points, and this season without Ronaldo, Manchester United will set the worst record in Premier League history. It's just that everything from this moment on may have nothing to do with Ronaldo, because the possibility of him staying at Manchester United next season is very small, and today should be the last time Ronaldo will meet with Manchester United fans at home.
