Manchester United’s superstar Cristiano Ronaldo caused a small scandal in the game against Tottenham with an early exit to the catacombs. That’s why he won’t be allowed to play against Chelsea.

It was also possible without him: According to coach Erik ten Hag, Manchester United delivered the “best performance of the season” in the 2-0 win against Tottenham. Cristiano Ronaldo was not in the starting line-up again.
And although he warmed up for a long time in the 2nd half, he was not substituted on. In the 88th minute, Ronaldo trudged towards the players’ tunnel, although Ten Hag still had two substitutions at that point.
“CR7” against Chelsea not there
His premature departure now has consequences. ManUnited dropped the 5-time world footballer on Thursday from the squad for Saturday’s league game against Chelsea. The rest of the team is fully focused on preparing for this game.
The 37-year-old Ronaldo will not get beyond a reserve role this season. In the league, he was only in the starting XI on three out of twelve matchdays.
