'Disgrace, disrespectful' - Cristiano Ronaldo slammed for what happened in Man Utd vs Tottenham

Tottenham looked a shadow of themselves during the 2-0 defeat against Manchester United at Old Trafford but it was Cristiano Ronaldo that received the most criticism on the night.

The Portuguese superstar was an unused substitute as United cruised to victory after goals from Fred and Bruno Fernandes rounded off a poor night for Spurs. Ronaldo has struggled for game time under new manager Erik ten Hag after missing pre-season due to 'family reasons' and expressing a desire to leave Old Trafford during the summer transfer window.

The 37-year-old striker scored a hat-trick in the same fixture last season in which the Lilywhites suffered a 3-2 loss after Harry Kane's penalty and Harry Maguire's own goal were cancelled out by the five-time Ballon d'Or winner. Spurs have now lost their last four matches against United in all competitions but most of the headlines were focused on what Ronaldo did before the end of the match on Wednesday night.
