Cristiano Ronaldo turns up at Man Utd v Wrexham game nobody saw today

Welsh side Wrexham played Man Utd in a behind-closed-doors friendly on Wednesday.

The Manchester Evening News report new signings Christian Eriksen and Lisandro Martinez both made their first appearances for the club, with Eriksen scoring in a 4-1 win. The game was played at United's Carrington training ground.

Eriksen is said to have scored a free-kick, before defender Aaron Hayden levelled the scores for the Welsh team before half-time. Alejandro Garnacho, Amad and Alex Telles all scored second-half goals without reply.

Cristiano Ronaldo was reportedly in attendance to watch the match from the sidelines as speculation swirls over his future at the club. Bruno Fernandes, Marcus Rashford and Harry Maguire were all also watching on.

Wrexham, who are owned by Hollywood stars Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney, were beaten play-off semi-finalists after they finished second in the National League last season.

The Welsh side are favourites to gain promotion back to the Football League next season, with their campaign starting a week on Saturday at home to Eastleigh.
