Cristiano Ronaldo scores 700th club goal to put Manchester United 2-1 up against Everton

Cristiano Ronaldo reached a new incredible milestone after scoring his 700th club goal to put Manchester United 2-1 up against Everton.

United were 1-0 down in the early stages when a Casemiro error allowed Alex Iwobi to curl home a worldie.

The Red Devils pulled level when Antony notched his third goal in as many Premier League games and then Ronaldo completed the turnaround just before half-time.

The five-time Ballon d'Or winner slotted past Jordan Pickford with his left foot for a record-breaking goal.

Ronaldo scored five goals for boyhood club Sporting CP and has racked up 144 for United over two spells. He conquered Italian football with 101 strikes for Juventus and is also Real Madrid's record goalscorer with 450.

The numbers are just frightening from Ronaldo, who is in his own league when it comes to club goals.

The 37-year-old found himself on the bench yet again in the Premier League, with Anthony Martial getting the nod up top.

But the Frenchman, having had difficulty during the warm-up, had to go off with an injury on the half hour mark.

Ronaldo made the most of his opportunity and struck his first ever goal at Goodison Park from Casemiro's gorgeous defence-splitting pass.

Having wanted to leave in the summer, the Portuguese superstar has been on the scoresheet twice for United this term.

He opened his account by hitting goal 699 against FC Sheriff in the Europa League and will no doubt be delighted to have converted on Sunday after a frustrating outing against Omonia Nicosia a few days ago.

Ronaldo continues to be linked with a move away from United, with the latest being that David Beckham's Inter Miami could go in for him in January.
