Manchester United only drew with Atalanta in Bergamo on Tuesday, with the star Cristiano Ronaldo having to save his goals again, thus surpassing his coach Ole Gunnar Solskjaer in the statistics.

How important it is to have Cristiano Ronaldo. That’s exactly how you could name the story the Portuguese has been writing since his return to Old Trafford. He confirmed his importance on Tuesday night.

Atalanta were twice ahead of Manchester United, but twice it was Ronaldo who levelled the match. First in the first minute of first half stoppage time, the second time in the first minute of second half stoppage time.

This point is very important for the Red Devils, because the group F, in which they are, is very balanced. The English team is on top with 7 points, second Villarreal has the same amount of points, Atalanta is third with 5 points, and last Bern has 3 points.

Ronaldo, then, apart from further saving his team, can boast that he has surpassed his coach Ole Gunnar Solskjaer in the Manchester United historical tables.

While the Norwegian netted 126 goals in 366 games during his time at Old Trafford, the Portuguese is now on 127 goals in 303 games.

Moreover, Solskjaer and Ronaldo were teammates between 2003 and 2007.
