Gary Lineker couldn't resist a cheeky dig at Manchester United during Saturday's broadcast of Match of the Day - leaving some supporters unimpressed.

Lineker, who has hosted the BBC highlights show since 1999, made the not-so-subtle quip in reference to the fact that Manchester City, Liverpool, Chelsea and United all needed penalties to pick up three points this weekend.Raheem Sterling netted the all-important spot-kick for City against Wolves, Mohamed Salah struck for Liverpool, Jorginho bagged a last-minute winner for Chelsea, and Cristiano Ronaldo sealed United's win over Norwich.

Never one to miss an opportunity for a gag at someone else's expense, Lineker took aim at the Red Devils as he was finishing off the show.

Cristiano Ronaldo holds impressive 2021 Juventus record despite joining Man Utd in August

Cristiano Ronaldo is still remarkably Juventus’ top scorer in 2021, despite completing his sensational return to Manchester United in August.What’s even more impressive is that Ronaldo last played a competitive match for Juventus all the way back in May during a 3-2 win over Inter.Ronaldo was unsurprisingly on the scoresheet after he fired home the rebound following a penalty save from Samir Handanovic.But despite the win over what was then Antonio Conte’s side, Juventus and Ronaldo couldn’t stop Inter from ending their run of nine straight Serie A titles.Inter clinched their first Scudetto in 11 years and ended the campaign 12 points clear of next-best AC Milan.And things would get worse for Juventus after Ronaldo later expressed his
