"Thanks to all the fans for the reception and support."

uve's victory saw Ronaldo and his team-mates make it three wins from as many matches in Group H to sit five points clear of United.

The Italian side are four points clear at the top of the Serie A table too, and return to league action with clashes against Empoli and Cagliari before the visit of United to Turin on November 7.

United, meanwhile, are back in Premier League action over the weekend when they face Everton at Old Trafford as they look to improve on their current 10th-place position in the table.
