RONALDO AT THE DOUBLE

-

CRISTIANO Ronaldo enjoyed a sensationa­l return to Manchester United as his debut double inspired a 4-1 win against Newcastle, while Arsenal eased the pressure on Mikel Arteta with a 1-0 victory over Norwich.

Ronaldo’s second debut for United was the headline act as the Premier League resumed after the internatio­nal break and the Portugal superstar did not disappoint his adoring fans at Old Trafford.

He showed he remains as sharp as ever with a clinical brace either side of Javier Manquillo’s equaliser for Newcastle.

Ronaldo’s compatriot Bruno Fernandes netted from long-range 10 minutes from full-time before Jesse Lingard bagged the fourth.

At the Emirates Stadium, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang gave under-fire Arsenal manager Arteta a drasticall­y needed first win for the season.
