CRISTIANO RONALDO treated himself to a rare glass of bubbly to celebrate going into the New Year.
The 36-year-old saw out 2021 alongside his four kids and pregnant girlfriend Georgina Rodriguez.
Heading into the New Year, Ronaldo reflected on the year just passed and his time at both club and international level.
And Ronaldo insisted neither him or his team-mates are happy with what Manchester United are achieving at the moment.
The Red Devils are sat sixth in the Premier League, 19 points off league leaders Manchester City and four points of fourth place Arsenal.
Ronaldo himself was heavily criticised for walking off at St James’ Park after the draw against Newcastle without acknowledging the travelling fans.
United legend Gary Neville put Ronaldo and team-mate Bruno Fernandes on blast.
But CR7 silenced the critics with a goal against Burnley in United’s next game.

In a reflective Instagram message, Ronaldo wrote: “2021 is coming to an end and it was far from being an easy year, despite my 47 goals scored across all competitions.
“Two different clubs and five different coaches. One Euro Final Stage played with my National Team and one World Cup Qualification left pending for 2022.
“At Juventus, I was proud to win the Italian Cup and the Italian Supercup, and become the Série A Top Scorer.
“For Portugal, becoming the Euro Top Scorer was also a high point this year. And of course, my return to Old Trafford will always be one of the most iconic moments in my career.
“But I’m not happy with what we are achieving in Man Utd. None of us are happy, I’m sure of that. We know that we have to work harder, play better and deliver way more than we are delivering right now.
“Let’s make this New Year’s Eve a turning point of the season! Let’s embrace 2022 with a higher spirit and a stronger mentality.
“Let’s take us above and beyond, let’s reach for the stars and put this club right where it belongs! Join us, we’re counting on all of you!
“Happy New Year and see you soon!”
