Cristiano Ronaldo hit a superb hat-trick for Manchester United against Norwich to reach another impressive goalscoring milestone in his illustrious career.
For the 17th consecutive season, the 37-year-old forward has now surpassed 20 goals in all competitions — a run that stretches back to the start of the 2006-07 campaign, his first stint at Old Trafford. Across that period of time, Ronaldo has played for Man United, Real Madrid, Juventus and heading back to rejoin the Red Devils.
Ronaldo was quick out of the blocks to put United ahead against Norwich, sweeping home from Anthony Elanga’s cutback after seven minutes of play. And he doubled the advantage using his aerial prowess just after the half-hour mark, rising to head home to clinch his 20th of the season.
