This Monday followingnoon, Manchester United finally recovered and, following two defeats in a row, won one of the Premier League derbies once morest Liverpool by 2 goals to 1. But beyond what happened on the pitch game, where those directed by Erik Ten Hag were far superior to those of Jürgen Klopp, there was a particular situation that stole all eyes before the initial whistle.
It happened in the preview, in the middle of the television broadcast, when Cristiano Ronaldo, who had barely entered the complement, approached the analysts to greet them.
Of course, among them were Gary Neville and Roy Keane, two former teammates of his at Manchester United. But so was Jamie Carragher, former Liverpool legend and defender.
He greeted Neville affectionately, of course, and the same thing happened to Keane, but when Carragher tried to approach Ronaldo, El Bicho did “the great Bielsa” and walked past, leaving his hand outstretched.
What happened?
For some time now, the former defender of the “Reds” has been hitting CR7. A few weeks ago he maintained that “his return (to the Premier) was somewhat strange. I felt that this situation would come, even if Ronaldo did well. So now the situation is complicated for United, because other clubs don’t want him.”
“If you ask Ten Hag, I don’t think he wants it. And I’m not very sure that the Manchester United dressing room wants Cristiano right now, ”he completed on that occasion.
The Ronaldo thing, then, is seen as a reckoning, which, as expected, quickly went viral on the networks.
