Manchester United legend, Roy Keane has defended Cristiano Ronaldo after the Portugal international refused to come on against Tottenham last Wednesday.
Ronaldo defied manager Erik ten Hag by refusing to come on during the 2-0 win at Old Trafford and later stormed down the tunnel and left the stadium before full-time.Keane, a former teammate of Ronaldo during his first spell at United, understood the decision to punish him but nonetheless defended the 37-year-old.“He’s obviously had enough. He’s lost his head and I think it’s been brewing over the last few weeks with Ronaldo.
“But I will still try and defend him. He’s a human being, he’s got flaws. He probably feels frustrated that he’s not been getting opportunities and he’s had enough.‘He walked down the tunnel but I think other players have done a lot worse at Manchester United.”
