The footballer celebrated this feat with a brace against Arsenal to lift the Red Devils to a 3-2 win over the Gunners.

It has been an eventful evening at Old Trafford, but there will be no bigger headline than the one involving Cristiano Ronaldo, who led Michael Carrick's side to a come-from-behind win for the Red Devils against Mikel Arteta's Arsenal.

The Portuguese star bagged a brace against the North London side to reach 800 and 801 goals in his professional career, which cannot be considered as a small feat. The striker has scored 129 goals during his two eras at Manchester United, added to his 450 with Real Madrid, his 101 goals for Juventus, and 115 with Portugal.

Here's a breakdown of CR7's goals in his prolific career.

Cristiano's feat was celebrated by fans, experts, and even some of his current and former teammates. Have a look at some of the most interesting comments posted on social media.
