“Your job without the ball, chapeau”

Manchester United manager Ralf Rangnick praised Cristiano Ronaldo’s pressure and off-the-ball work in the 1-0 win at Crystal Palace.

“His work without the ball, chapeau,” Rangnick told Sky Sports after Cristiano started the game despite rumors that he was a possible problem for the German when pressing.

The set of the ‘Red Devils’ achieved this Sunday the first victory of the Rangnick era 1-0, thanks to a goal from Fred against Palace.

“The most important thing today has been to keep a clean sheet. That is where we have to improve. Leave the door to zero more times. Today we have always sought to squeeze, to always have the ball far from our area “the German pointed out.

“It is easier to improve when you are winning. We have to keep a clean sheet more times and create better opportunities up front.. Overall I am quite happy with our performance today. “
