Cristiano Ronaldo raised his left arm and pointed toward the sky following his goal for Manchester United on Saturday that gave the Portugal star his 100th in English Premier League competition.
The subdued celebration unfolded five days after he and his partner, Georgina Rodriguez, announced one of their newborn twins had died. Ronaldo did not play in Tuesday’s game while the couple was grieving the loss.
The goal in the 34th minute off his left foot while redirecting a deep cross from teammate Nemanja Matic trimmed Arsenal’s lead to 2-1, but Manchester wound up losing, 3-1, at Emirates Stadium in London.
