Manchester United forward Cristiano Ronaldo reached a milestone during the game against Arsenal at the Emirates. 

Ronaldo's 34th-minute striker saw Manchester United reduce a 2-0 deficit to Arsenal at halftime.

The goal, his 16th of the season, was his 100th in the Premier League, making him the oldest player to score a century of goals in PL history. 

Manchester United were without the Portuguese star for their ill-fated trip to Anfield the last time to take on Liverpool.

United suffered a 4-0 defeat without their top scorer, who missed the game due to a compassionate leave following the death of his son.

Ronaldo, 37, is now the fourth Manchester United player to score 100 goals in the Premier League.
