Cristiano Ronaldo made history as Manchester United made amends at Goodison Park. The veteran forward became the first player to score 700 goals at club level as he helped Erik ten Hag’s team erase the misery of their mauling by Manchester City with an impressive away win at Everton.
The 37-year-old striker’s last appearance at Goodison Park ended with an FA charge for smacking a phone out of a young Evertonian’s hand following a lame defeat against Frank Lampard’s side. He returned to create yet more history, driving home a deserved winner to hit an incredible milestone that not even the likes of Pele, Ferenc Puskas or Lionel Messi – yet – accomplished.
