Cristiano Ronaldo claims Erik ten Hag "provoked" him in Man Utd incident he "regrets"

Cristiano Ronaldo has insisted that Manchester United boss Erik ten Hag "provoked" him and was responsible for the forward's remarkable tantrum against Tottenham last month.

Ronaldo made headlines by storming off before the end of United's impressive 2-0 win over Spurs and left Old Trafford before the conclusion of the game.

Ten Hag later confirmed that Ronaldo had refused to come on as a substitute in the final minutes of the match - and Ronaldo has now given his verdict on the incident in the second part of his explosive, unsanctioned interview with Piers Morgan, which aired on Thursday night.
