Tension: De Gea scolds Cristiano Ronaldo for being late with the ball, causing chagrin – Manchester United

Manchester United lost 1-0 to Wolverhampton, and much criticism was leveled at the team led by Ralph Rangnick. The game is analyzed through a magnifying glass and there is a move that shows some tension between Ronaldo and De Gea. Even in the first part of the game, when the result was empty on the scoreboard, Cristiano Ronaldo appeared at the entrance to the Manchester United area to help with defensive tasks. A Portuguese national team player received a balloon and tried to hit it with his head for De Gea to grab it and start the game. The problem was that he measured the distance incorrectly and the ball went towards Raul Jimenez, ahead of the Wolves.

The move culminated in a pass from United’s defenders, a fresh reinstatement of outsiders and an opportunity for the Mexican striker to score. The ball went over the endline and De Gea used the moment to scold CR7. The Spanish goalkeeper was clearly upset by Ronaldo’s decision and had no problem showing it back then.

CR7 was the team captain in this match due to Maguire’s absence. When asked why the Portuguese had the armband and not the Spanish goalkeeper, Rangnick answered clearly. “There were doubts between De Gea and Ronaldo, they are the longest at the club, but I want the team captain to be a fielder,” he explained.
