ManchesterUnited forward CristianoRonaldo said he regretted leaving early during a Premier League match against Tottenham Hotspur last month, but added that his decision to walk off came because he felt “provoked” by manager Erik ten Hag.

Last month, Ten Hag said Ronaldo refused to come on as a substitute in the 2-0 home win over Spurs before walking down the tunnel with a few minutes of the match remaining. Ronaldo was then left out of the squad that faced Chelsea the following Saturday. “You don’t put me on against Manchester City because of respect for my career and you want to put me on for three minutes against Tottenham? It doesn’t make sense,”“I think he did it on purpose. I felt provoked not only because of that game but before. He doesn’t respect the way I should deserve. But it is what it is. This is why probably, the game against Tottenham, I left.”
