Cristiano: “The fans deserve something much better”

Cristiano Ronaldo’s words were not long in coming after Manchester United’s debacle against Liverpool. The Portuguese forward played all 90 minutes at Old Trafford but could not prevent the crushing defeat of the Red Devils: “Sometimes the result we achieve is not what we fight for. Sometimes the result is not what we want. And this depends on us, just us, because no one else is to blame “, wrote on his official Instagram profile.

Cristiano Ronaldo even scored a goal in the second half that would have meant 1-5, but the VAR detected that the previous unchecking had been offside. What’s more, On the 7th of Old Trafford he was immersed in one of the controversial plays, since the referee only took him a yellow card when he kicked Curtis Jones twice fruit of the desperation of the result that caused a brawl before the break. In addition, Cristiano added a compliment to his fans: “Our fans were incredible, once again, with their constant support. They deserve something much better than this and it is up to us to get it. The time is now!”

The Portuguese started his second spell at Manchester United brilliantly and scored five goals in his first games. A month after his fifth goal, his goal against Atalanta gave Solskjaer’s three points in the Champions League – Cristiano has scored in the three games they have played – but in the league he has not scored four games … precisely the same ones that his team has been without achieving victory in the Premier League.
