The Portuguese, who started as a substitute, scored in the match against Everton.

Cristiano Ronaldo scored his 700th club goal this Sunday against Everton, having started from the Manchester United bench.

The five-time Ballon d’Or winner has been relegated to the background since the arrival of Erik Ten Hag to the Red Devils bench, but came on half an hour into the game to replace the injured Anthony Martial.

This was Cristiano Ronaldo’s 700th goal

It took just 14 minutes for the Portuguese to score his first goal in the current Premier League, taking advantage of a great pass into the gap by Casemiro and overcoming Jordan Pickford, a goal that also served to put his team ahead 2-1 before the break.
