Firing on all Cylinders!

...that's the only thing you can say about the goalden winger of Man Utd, Cristiano Ronaldo. Over the past weekend he scored 1 goal and assisted 3 goals in a 4-0 win over Aston Villa. Then he scored a crucial goal in the Champions League Quarter Final (1st leg) at Stadio Olimpico in Rome when Man Utd defeated Roma 2-0. His goal, just before half-time, was a brave, powerful header to meet Paul Scholes's deft chip with a prodigious leap. Ronaldo's performance in Rome, where he was deployed as a lone striker for much of the match, has helped to put United in an excellent position to reach the semi finals for the second successive season. Ronaldo was handled with the Man of the Match award against Roma. This award has been followed by the Player of the Month for March on manutd.com.
