Ratings
Aesthetically Pleasing 20/30
A very good example of Ronaldo's two-footed technique, this time appearing on the right flank.

The defending isn't massively impressive and it's a relatively simple goal for a player of Ronaldo's talents.

A goal that Ronaldo himself scored with increasing regularity.
Importance 7/10
Allowed United to close the gap on Arsenal to a solitary point.
Standard of Opposition 8/10
EVERTON.

A goal that came one of Ronaldo's staples, but far from his finest effort.
