Ronaldo recently gave fans a glimpse of what he has been up to after he scored a sublime rabona during a United warm-up in the run-up to their clash against Sheriff.

A footage capturing the forward's wonderful striker was caught on camera and widely shared on social media.

The video shows the ball getting into the striker's path from a cross before the Man United ace used the opportunity to perform an outrageous rabona volley with little effort.

Is this the first time Cristiano Ronaldo has scored a rabona?

Incidentally, this won't be the first time Ronaldo has employed the same skill to score.

According to The Sun, the former Real Madrid star has previously scored a rabona, with the moment arriving during the Autumn international break in 2016.

At the time, Ronnie scored a breathtaking rabona goal during training just months after he had captained his country to glory at Euro 2016.

Meanwhile, the 37-year-old will be hoping to fight his way back to Erik ten Hag's starting XI after the international break.
