Jadon Sancho bagged the opener and the young United winger celebrated by showing off a personalised pair of shin pads.

After Ronaldo was replaced by Anthony Elanga, he too showed that he was a pair of special shin pads.

Footballers personalise many items like boots and bag. It seems like custom shin pads are also a thing. 

CR7 was spotted on United's bench with a collage of his big family on his protective guards. In the past, Ronaldo has had his shin pads personalised with a picture of himself. 

Check out his shin pads from last night's game:

Jadon Sancho made up for the disappointment of missing out on a England call-up with a composed finish in the first-half against Sheriff.

After scoring, Sancho dedicated his goal to a young United fan who handed him the personalised shin-pads.

He also took to Instagram to pay tribute to the fan: 

The young fan Jacob, who's taken pics and received autographs from most of United's first team ballers, has also handed personalised shin pads to Alejandro Garnacho and Scott Mctominay. 

Have your say on Sancho's wholesome gesture and Ronaldo's custom shin pads...
