Chris Cantell Discusses Sports: Ronaldo came, scored and Manchester United won
by Nina Gotzmannova


The Manchester United opener in Champions League has brought some surprises on the green field. Ronaldo visited his former club Sporting Lisbon, scored and won. And Wayne Rooney has returned after almost six weeks of recovering his foot injury.For the first time since 2003 22-years old Cristiano Ronaldo has laid his feet on his former gridiron on Jose Alvalade Stadium in Lisbon. Right here, when Sporting beat United four years ago, the manager of United decided to have him in his team. And Ronaldo didn't fail. The black haired winger scored the single goal of the match and doubtless he decided the game, which ended 0-1 for United, but also encouraged his mates. On Wednesday he moved United one step forward to their bid to win Champions League. They had it won only twice in the history, in 1968 and 1999. This may be their symbolic third victory, even though the only major honor that United has not won is UEFA Cup, the second most international competition for European footballers. His performance wasn't surprise; Ronaldo is appreciated and talented young player. The return of Rooney didn't much help him, because Rooney was still a little bit drowsy after his long pause. But Sporting was lot more active in the match than United was. According to Sporting coach Paulo Bento Sporting was controlling the first half and had the best chances. Only the luck that United scored first gave them a chance to win.However, the winner is Manchester United. The football team can dedicate another victory for themselves. They are the first English club who beat Sporting on home soil.
