It’s been a long time coming, but Cristiano Ronaldo finally made his return to the pitch for Manchester United on Saturday and what a return it was.
The legendary striker caught the back of the net twice in Man U’s 4-1 win over Newcastle. Things went exactly as Manchester United fans would’ve hoped.
Ronaldo seemed to be really happy, too. After the match, he shared a heartfelt message with fans via Instagram about how this return reminded him why Old Trafford, where Man U plays, is called the “Theater of Dreams.”
He called it a “magical place” where “you can achieve everything you set your mind into.”
“Along with all my teammates and with the amazing support that we always get from the stands, we face the road ahead with confidence and optimism that we’ll all be celebrating together in the end..Proud to be back at Man. United and playing in the Premier League once again, but above all, happy to help the team!”
Clearly, Ronaldo is thrilled with where he’s at. And fans are pretty happy about it, too, obviously. That’s amazing to see.
This seems like it could be a pretty fun run.
