Cristiano Ronaldo was lauded by Manchester United fans after joining the Premier League's prestigious '100 goals club' against Arsenal.

After a devastating loss to Liverpool the previous week, United travelled south to play another fierce rival, Arsenal, in a match that will have enormous implications in the fight for a Champions League spot. With four games left, Ralf Rangnick's side can draw level on points with the Gunners - and temporarily with Tottenham - if they win.

Even though the stakes were so high, Manchester United started the game poorly again and were behind after just two minutes thanks to some terrible defending. Nuno Tavares scored the goal. Bukayo Saka converted a penalty to put United two goals behind.

But Ronaldo halved the gap minutes later. Compassionate leave for the death of his young son forced him out of the starting XI. He had a great start and scored a well-deserved goal from Nemanja Matic's cross.

Ronaldo has now scored 100 goals in the Premier League, becoming the 33rd player to accomplish so. Moreover, the 37-year-old has already scored over 100 goals in the Premier League, La Liga, Champions League, and international football.
