What caused West Ham star to tell Manchester United forward Cristiano Ronaldo to 'f*** off'

West Ham's Vladimir Coufal has recalled the time he told Manchester United's Cristiano Ronaldo to "f*** off" during a heated game last season.

United beat West Ham 2-1 at the London Stadium last September as they came back to win after going 1-0 down. Goals either side of half-time from Ronaldo and Jesse Lingard ensured the Reds took all three points.
