Gary Neville and Paul Scholes pick their favourite Cristiano Ronaldo goals ahead of Manchester United vs Juventus
Gary Neville has revealed that Cristiano Ronaldos header against Roma back in 2008 is the most miraculous goal that hes ever witnessed.
Ronaldo is preparing to take on his former side for the first time as a Juventus player and Jose Mourinho has warned Manchester Uniteds squad that the forward will be hellbent on scoring at Old Trafford.
The 33-year-old has scored in his last two Serie A matches and will be desperate to add to his tally at Old Trafford, just as he did when at Real Madrid in the 2012/13 season to knock United out of the Champions League.

Ronaldo is the competitions all-time top scorer with 120 goals and Neville believes his stunning header during Uniteds quarter-final victory over Roma in 2007/08 is the best of the lot.
His goal that he scored against Roma, to this day, is the best goal Ive ever seen, the former United defender told ESPN.
Its the most miraculous goal that Ive ever seen. He jumped from the edge of the box and headed it on the penalty spot at full speed.
And hed sprinted from the halfway line nearly. I had never seen anything like it.
Ronaldos spectacular last-gasp effort as United defeated Fulham in 2007 is the goal that sticks in the memory for Paul Scholes.
Some of his goals were unbelievable and his free-kicks. Its not a big goal but against Fulham away when we were going for the league, Scholes said.

That was the dribble and the finish and the celebration afterwards. I dont know why because of all the great goals he scored.
I know it was a great goal but thats the one that I always think about Cristiano for.
