Cristiano Ronaldo enjoyed a fairytale start to his Manchester United homecoming after scoring a brace in the victory against Newcastle - but he has admitted to feeling 'super nervous' before kick-off.
Superstar Ronaldo, 36, hit the ground running at Old Trafford after sealing his return from Juventus with two strikes, one a poacher's finish after a rebound and another a powerful drive through the goalkeeper.
Throughout the game, he was serenaded by the crowd, but after the final whistle, he revealed early jitters had set in.
