Cristiano Ronaldo proved the difference for Manchester United in victory over Atalanta last night.

That's according to former Fulham defender Brede Hangeland, who was at pitchside for United's 3-2 Champions League win.

Ronaldo proved the matchwinner and Hangeland told TV2: "What a gloomy mood it was here at the break.

"Without playing great football, they come back. And of course it is Ronaldo who does it."

Former Tottenham goalkeeper Erik Thorstvedt also said: "This was a magical night they will remember for a long time."
