Never doubt Cristiano Ronaldo.
That was the message from Manchester United supporters after the five-time Ballon d'Or winner produced trademark magic under the lights at Old Trafford to end his goal drought against Brighton.
Ronaldo headed into the game having scored 14 goals in 26 appearances this season. However, there had been some question marks about his form with the former Real Madrid and Juventus icon enduring his worst goal drought for more than a decade.
Following a goalless and largely frustrating opening 45 minutes, the 37-year-old took matters into his own hands as he fired an unstoppable strike past Robert Sanchez after the restart.
His ninth goal of the Premier League season sparked pandemonium among the fanbase.
Here are a handful of the comments taken from Twitter.
