In the Champions League match against Atalanta, Ronaldo scored a double, updating his record for the most goals scored in the tournament.

Cristiano Ronaldo, the Portuguese footballer for English club Manchester United, is as significant to his team as basketball player Michael Jordan was to Chicago Bulls.

“Manchester United” on Wednesday drew with the Italian “Atalanta” (2: 2). Ronaldo scored a double and updated his record for the most goals scored in the tournament (139).

“Cristiano for us is like Jordan at Chicago. Nobody can question the character of these players. They just don’t give up and keep going forward. During the match, I had to make a few changes; they worked,” Solskjaer said.

Ronaldo is 36 years old, and he again became a player for Manchester United in the summer of 2021. He previously played for the English team from 2003 to 2009, becoming during this time three-time champion of England, winner of the FA Cup and Champions League, two-time winner of the English League Cup.
