CRISTIANO RONALDO caught the attention with a suspiciously-timed tweet on Thursday.
Footie fans were treated to a barmy mid-table belter between Chelsea and Manchester United.
Defending was almost non-existent as United raced back from 2-0 down to lead 3-2 in the final seconds after a double from Alejandro Garnacho and Bruno Fernandes’ header.
But an outrageous late collapse saw Cole Palmer net a 100th-minute penalty to level it.
Before the England hopeful sent Stamford Bridge bananas with a stunning winner to seal his hat-trick a minute later after United switched off from a corner.
And it just so happened to be at the precise moment that United legend Ronaldo posted a photo of himself and captioned it: “Happy days” with a green heart emoji.

Fans immediately noticed the timing of the tweet and claimed it was not a coincidence.
One said: “Love the timing GOAT.”
Another added: “My GOAT mocking Ten Hag.”
A third then put: “Love the timing idolo, cook Ten Hag.”
