- Cristiano Ronaldo was spotted watching the El Clasico on Sunday night
- The five time Ballon d'Or winner returned to Madrid to watch his former teammates - Los Blancos gave him a good welcome beating Barcelona 2-0
Portugal international Cristiano Ronaldo on Sunday night, March 1, returned to the Santiago Bernabeu
for the first time since he left last two years as he
watched the El Clasico. Cristiano Ronaldo was spotted at the stands with
some of his friends watching his biggest rival Lionel
Messi facing his former club Real Madrid in what
was a tough battle. And his presence must have inspired his former
teammates as they got a 2-0 win over Barcelona
which sent them to the top of the Spanish La Liga
standings. Vinicius Junior scored the first goal for Real Madrid
in this encounter in the 71st minute, and Barcelona
were looking for an equalizer before Mariano
netted the winner at the death. Ighalo mocked for what he told the press after Man
United's draw against Club Brugge in UEL (video) Cristiano Ronaldo arrived the stadium on a low key
as the Portuguese did not want the fans to notice
him before he was later spotted at the stands. The first goal scored by Junior made Cristiano
Ronaldo happy that the Juventus star had no other
choice than to celebrate from the stands.

failed to win a single El Clasico...
He returned tonight and they got their first
win with Vinicius Jr. doing Cristiano
Ronaldo’s celebration as he watched from the stands to top it all off.
Real Madrid's latest win against Barcelona was a big
one for Zinedine Zidane and his men as they have
not beaten the Catalans at home in El Clasico since
2014. Cristiano Ronaldo left Real Madrid in the summer of
2018 for a move to Juventus after scoring 450
goals for Los Blancos.

The former Manchester United man also won four Champions League titles at Real Madrid before he
moved to the Italian Serie A. He won the Italian Serie A title during his first
season in Turin, but did not go far in the Champions
League as Juventus were beaten by Ajax.
