Cristiano Ronaldo once again had the final word.

Manchester United's star striker scored off a broken play in the 91st minute to salvage a 2-2 draw at Atalanta on Tuesday and keep the Red Devils in first place in Group F.

Two weeks after cementing a 3-2 victory over Atalanta at Old Trafford, the 36-year-old fired into the bottom corner to stave off what looked like a sure defeat for United.

He also scored the initial equalizer to tie Tuesday's contest at 1-1.
