Cristiano Ronaldo, who was left out of the squad against Chelsea for refusing to play in the final minutes against Tottenham Hotspur, explained that respect for his teammates is always very important to him and that sometimes the pressure of the moment is “succeeded you”.
The Portuguese set up a new fire at Old Trafford by leaving the game in which his team won 2-0 at Tottenham with minutes left to play. The star, who was dropped to the bench, refused to play, earning him a penalty from Erik ten Hag, who left him out of the squad to face Chelsea this Saturday.
The notice
“Like I’ve always done throughout my career. I’ve tried to live and play with respect for my teammates, my coaches and my rivals. That hasn’t changed. I haven’t changed. I am the same person and the same professional as the last 20 years. Respect has always been very important in my decision making,” Cristiano said on Instagram.
“Since I was young, the most experienced players have been an example for me. Now, I try to be an example for the younger ones. Sometimes it is not possible and the pressure of the moment overcomes us” , continued Cristiano.
“I just felt now that I have to keep working hard at Carrington, support my teammates and be ready for anything in the next game. Giving in to pressure is not an option and never will be. This is Manchester United and we must unite.” Soon we will be together again,” concluded Cristiano.
