Cristiano Ronaldo marks his return to the Manchester United side with a goal against Sheriff Tiraspol. 

The Portuguese forward netted a left-footed effort from the left-hand side of the penalty area in the 81st minute of the Europa League clash. 

The 37-year-old had been out of the team after a high-profile falling-out with manager Erik ten Hag that saw him axed from the first team after refusing to come on against Tottenham earlier in October.
