Furious fans SLAM Ronaldo for storming down the tunnel before full-time

Manchester United fans have slammed Cristiano Ronaldo for storming down the tunnel before full-time against Tottenham and have labelled him 'a petulant child' for doing so.

The United superstar was an unused substitute as Erik ten Hag's side ripped Spurs apart and cruised to a 2-0 victory at Old Trafford. In dramatic fashion, he left the dugout before the final whistle had gone.

Users on social media have now hit back at the United No.7 for his actions and claimed that he's 'tarnished' his legacy at the club.

After Ronaldo's early exit, one fan wrote: 'Ronaldo is a disgrace 37 years of age and storming off like a petulant child.'

'Ronaldo is spoiling his reputation with United he is a legend but it now tarnished and that’s the sad thing what will he be remembered for by young fans,' another said.

His legacy was a recurring them, with one user saying: 'Ronaldo should leave Manchester United for the sake of himself, his legacy and the club too.'

One user claimed that the forward's attitude could cause issues for the squad, writing: 'Ronaldo’s a disgrace! At this point he’s just making problems for ETH'

The forward has made headlines in recent months regarding his displeasure at a lack of minutes at the club after trying to secure a move away from the club in the summer.

One fan attempted to rejoiced in the victory but was unhappy with the forward's reaction. He wrote: 'Such a good win and this Ronaldo fella had to spoil the celebrations.'

There were some brutal takes on Ronaldo's actions, with one fan claiming: 'Unpopular opinion. Ronaldo is the most SELFISH athlete in the history of sports.'

'Never thought I’d say this as one of the biggest United/CR7 fans but Ronaldo can kick rocks, he’s washed and selfish,' another said.

Ronaldo was dropped again for the game against Tottenham after returning to the team following a spell on the bench, and was clearly frustrated again as he walked out on his team before the end of the game at Old Trafford.

United boss Erik ten Hag, speaking after the game, told Amazon Prime Video: 'I don't pay attention to that. I have seen him, I will deal with that tomorrow, not today. We are celebrating this victory and we have to recover from this for Saturday.'

He scored United's winner against Everton earlier this month with Marcus Rashford and Anthony Martial out the team injured, though Rashford returned up front for the win over Tottenham.

Patrice Evra, working as a pundit on the game, leapt to Ronaldo's defence.

He said: 'Everyone is different. I want to stay on the United performance.

'He might have said to ten Hag "I am going in", and we are going to make a story just showing him walking. Maybe he said he needed some treatment.

'I don’t want to find any excuse, but I want to be focused on the story of United and we have to stop talking every day about Cristiano.'
