For Ronaldo, it was also his 144th goal in the red jersey of United across two spells at the club.
In a glittering career, the Portuguese forward has also netted five times for Sporting Lisbon, scored 101 goals for Juventus and 450 for Real Madrid.
However, Ronaldo came on as a substitute for Anthony Martial after again starting on the bench.
The 37-year-old Portugal striker latched onto a through-ball from Casemiro and slotted a finish under Everton goalkeeper Jordan Pickford in the 44th minute. Ultimately it was also the match-winner for the Red Devils who went on to win a margin of 2-1.
