Ronaldo surpasses manager Solskjaer in Manchester United goal records as he saves Red Devils once again

Cristiano Ronaldo has surpassed his current manager's goalscoring mark at Manchester United after the Portuguese star helped lead Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's side to a last-gasp draw on Tuesday.

Ronaldo scored late in the club's 2-2 draw with Atalanta, helping seal an improbable point in Italy.

The Portuguese striker himself called the result "lucky", although the stats show there's nothing fortunate about Ronaldo's goalscoring prowess.

Surpassing Solskjaer

With his late goal on Tuesday, Ronaldo has now scored 127 goals in 303 appearances across his two stints at Manchester United.

Those 127 goals are one more than his current manager, with Solskjaer finding the back of the net 126 times in 366 total games.
