According to Tasnim news agency, Manchester United football team managed to defeat its host Brentford team with a result of 3 to 1 in a backward game last night. When the score was 2-0, Red Devils coach Ralph Rangnick pulled out Cristiano Ronaldo, a decision that left the Portuguese star openly dissatisfied. The two men talked on the floor, and this aroused the curiosity of reporters.
“Why me, why did you take me out?” Rangnik said at the end of the game in response to what he and Ronaldo said to each other. I said, “I have to decide for the good of the team and the club. We had exactly the same situation at Astonville on Saturday and we were 2-0 up in the second half. I did not want to make the same mistake again.” (Manchester United’s game with Stonewilla was 2-2). That’s why I sent Harry Maguire to the ground because I wanted to make up the defense three people and Marcus Rashford to play the role of fast wing. It was the right decision. Cristiano is a goal scorer, but at that point in the game it was important for the team to have balance. When we scored the third goal, I said exactly the same thing to Ronaldo: “I know you have a lot of motivation to score, but maybe in the next two years, when you are a coach like me and Timothy is in such a situation, you will understand why I made this decision. I got it”.
Asked if he would talk to Ronaldo about it again, the German coach said: “I did not expect him to hug me when he was replaced. I have no problem with Cristiano. I have been here for 6 weeks now and I have never had a problem with him during this time, no.
