Anthony Elanga admits he was shocked when Cristiano Ronaldo asked him to join in with his trademark celebration after opening the scoring against Norwich last month. Ronaldo netted another hat-trick as Manchester United fought hard to win 3-2 at Old Trafford.
The opening goal of the match was the easiest of the lot, as Ronaldo tapped in following a fine piece of pressing play from Elanga to rob possession from a Norwich defender. The Swedish forward then selflessly rolled the ball across the box for Ronaldo to finish, a generous gesture which was not taken for granted by the Portuguese star.
As Ronaldo raced away to execute his trademark 'Siuuu!' celebration, he invited Elanga to join in it with him as a thank you for the assist. Elanga has now spoken about the moment.
