The best free-kick he had ever seen in the Premiership.
Ronaldo scored two stunning goals in the midweek game against Portsmouth to give his team the full three points, and top spot on the EPL table. With the two goals, CR7 upped his league-leading tally to 19 for the season. And, the second strike had Sir Alex beaming from ear to ear, as he said it was the best free-kick he had ever seen in the Premiership.
Since C. Ronaldo debuted his new Mercurial Vapor IVs on January 12, he has been absolutely en fuego. He has played four games with the new boots and has scored eight goals. He has now scored in five straight games for Man U. It’s gotta be the boots, money!
The man is truly on fire. And, he is now being compared to the Best of the best.
