Cristiano Ronaldo had an awful time against Middlesbrough. His link-up play was non-existent as he missed multiple opportunities to pass to his teammates, and he seemed to have left his shooting boots at home.
The forward couldn't even complain about the service provided to him as Manchester United created chance after chance. Still, aside from Jadon Sancho, no one could muster a shot that wasn't either off-target or straight at the keeper.
But when Paul Pogba was brought down in the box and United were awarded a penalty, you knew exactly who would step up to take it, so Ronaldo did.
