Time to wrap up this blog. Thanks for reading! Nighty night.
Ralf Rangnick, rumoured to be taking over the Austria national team, speaks to Sky. “In the second half we showed a good reaction, a good attitude, even more so after we conceded the goal. Although it was still a lucky draw, we earned it. They played with their best starting XI and we had a few players missing. We had our problems defending, are not compact, aggressive or physical enough, and this shows up against the top teams. If Cristiano plays like he plays today, he can still be a great help for this team. In the end, it is both Erik and Cris’s decision what they want to do, it’s not for me to speak about.”
As for his next move? He’s not going to be drawn on the Austria gig, but... “Let us speak tonight about Manchester United for the rest of the season here, and I can also confirm that I will definitely continue with my consultancy role. We have agreed on the content and time of my role. I have not spoken yet with Erik, but I am more than willing to help to change things for the better. It would leave space for another job, but that’s what we agreed in November last year.”
