Cristiano Ronaldo has congratulated Manchester United teammate Marcus Rashford after he notched his 100th goal for the club.
Rashford stole the show for United in their win over West Ham. The academy product scored towards the end of the first half to rack up his 100th goal for the club.
It capped a memorable afternoon for the 24-year-old who took his tally for the season up to seven. Many fans claimed Rashford's goal was one that even teammate Ronaldo would have been proud of, with the England international producing an impressive header to fire past Lukasz Fabiański.
Rashford took to Instagram post-match, writing: "100 goals for this special club! I've been here since I was 7 years old and came through every single age group and played on every single pitch so I want to thank all the staff, my family and team mates that have helped make this achievement possible."
Ronaldo was one of many United colleagues to reply to Rashford's post, with the Portuguese responding with a classy but prompt message, simply saying: "Congratulations".
Others to respond included Jadon Sancho - who simply put a love heart emoji - and Luke Shaw, who wrote: "Many more to come brother."
Rashford has been tasked with leading the line for United at times this season as Ronaldo struggles for form and Anthony Martial continues to battle various injuries. The England international has insisted he is happy to play wherever Ten Hag wants him to if it means he can help the team, though it remains to be seen whether United will look to strengthen their forward options in January.

When you talk about these individual awards, except golden boot all the awards are based on votes which may be biased, for example Ronaldo was robbed of a Ballon d'Or in 2018 Proof: If you talk about golden boots. It is decided on the basis of league goals and it doesn't necessarily mean good goalscoring. For example if A scored 20 goals in 30 games and B scored 19 goals in 18 matches. Golden boot will be given to A. Now let's come to goal ratio. The only reason why Messi's career goal ratio is greater than that of Ronaldo is because Ronaldo played as a right midfielder in the toughest league for 5 years. That's why Messi scored his first UCL goal before CR7 and was ahead of him until 2015. but people Like Dad will say otherwise...!!! Messi has always been in La Liga for all his career.. Blank in PSG and in La Liga Ronaldo has scored 311 goals in 292 games. If Ronaldo played all his life for Real Madrid he would have scored 1000+ goals by now. On top of all that CR7 has these advantages over Messi He is better goalscorer. He is not a system player. He has won for his country. He is much better in UCL which is the best club competition. He is much more compete forward, left foot, right foot, head.. Ronaldo > Messi Now I hope all you Messi lunatics will come to your right senses In conclusion Ronaldo > Messi, Maradona, Pele. Ronaldo = GOAT

Well he didn't win it cause he didn't have a better season thats why 😂, anything Messi has better over Ronaldo there's always an excuse to cover it up "Cause Ronaldo played as a Right midfielder" shut up mate never did he played on the Left or striker at United under sir alex, Messi has played as winger majority of his career bar 4 seasons as a CF getting 91 goals in a calander year something no striker or player has done ever in the sport so wouldn't say he's a far better goalscorer than messi, like you do realise Ronaldo has been a striker for 6 seasons and its the only reason he's ahead of Messi in goals, you say the golden Boot is biases just cause Ronaldo doesn't have more than Messi typical 😂, well you said he's blank at PSG but he's having a far better season than Ronaldo anyways, in France and Champions league but guessing it doesn't count? He joined United when we where the best team in the league dominating every season but guess he won everything himself at United, Messi is 8 goals behind Ronaldo in career goals he be getting lapped soon, nd has like 30 goals more than Messi in total so he's not much better he's just been a striker so naturally youll score more but you don't play football you wouldn't know, then you say "if" he stayed at Madrid he would have all these things but did he stay mate? No so it's irrelevant he want to join a team in Italy that won the year 10 years in a row 😂 wanted that challenge yeah? both great players but Messi has more to offer Playmaker/goalscorer, Ronaldo just a goalscorer that doesn't always turn up, Messi has a much better left foot even Ronaldo joked about it wish I had Messi left foot, Messi wins awards accepts it shuts up and goes home, Ronaldo wins it and goes on like a kid "SUIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII" and hasn't won it since saying it. Messi is a complete forward and midfielder nd not only that everyone's real GOAT.
