If you didn’t know what happened last Thursday then probably you are not a Man United fan.
Cristiano Ronaldo played in the Europa League again after 20 years after his first appearance in the second tier European tournament which was called back then UEFA Cup.
The Sporting Lisbon striker back then played his first senior season with the Portuguese team in 2002-2003 where he played his first Champions League match against Italian giants Inter Milan in the third qualifying round where the Lions lost 2-0 on aggregate to the Nerazzurri.
Ronaldo's Champions League debut story was shattered too early but his UEFA Cup trip began when they had to face Serbian side Partizan Belgrade, Ronaldo played both home and away matches losing 6-4 on aggregate getting knocked out in the first round.
After 20 years Manchester United forward Ronaldo appeared again in his third Europa League match against Real Sociedad last Thursday, losing 1-0 to the Spanish side.
Too bad seeing a legend struggling that much, especially when you compare him to Lionel Messi who is having a fantastic season so far with the French giant PSG.
