Cristiano Ronaldo came in as 2nd half substitute and scored twice in 5 minutes, leading Manchester United to win 3-1 against Wigan at Old Trafford.

United boss Sir Alex Ferguson rested some key players at the start, but decided to bring on Ronaldo after a disappointing first half.

Ronaldo answered the call and scored just after a minute on the pitch from a fine header. He should have scored the penalty a couple minutes later, but it didn’t matter as he poked in the rebound after Wigan’s keeper blocked his initial spot kick.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer scored the 3rd for United; while Leighton Baines claimed a consolation goal at injury time with a penalty kick.

In the end, it’s Ronaldo magic once again that led Manchester United to victory, and extending their lead at the Premiership table to 4 points ahead of Chelsea.
