Manchester United are looking into an incident involving Cristiano Ronaldo after the striker appeared to knock a fan's phone out of their hand following their 1-0 defeat to Everton.
Ronaldo was furious after Manchester United's 1-0 loss to Frank Lampard's side on Saturday afternoon and appeared to take his anger out on an Everton fan's phone as he walked down the tunnel at Goodison Park.
Eyewitnesses state that the 37-year-old Manchester United striker 'smashed the phone' out of an Everton fan's hand as he stormed back to the changing room.
A video has surfaced of Ronaldo lowering his right hand towards the ground in frustration. He is seen making contact with what appears to be a fan's phone.
The item instantly dropped to the floor and fans jeered the striker as a result of the incident.
Manchester United supporters were quick to defend Ronaldo. Some said it was the 37-year-old's shin pad as he’s seen holding just one. However, his second shin pad appears to be in his sock.
Therefore, Manchester United are looking into the incident to determine exactly what happened following the club's 1-0 loss to Everton on Saturday.
It was not a good day at the office for Ronaldo or Manchester United - who have won just one of their last five Premier League games.
As a result, the Red Devils now look unlikely to qualify for the Champions League next season.
David de Gea described Manchester United's defeat to Everton as 'a disgrace' after failing to beat the 17th placed team at Goodison Park on Saturday.
'It's a disgrace from us, to be honest, we should win the game,' De Gea told BT Sport. We don't create, that's the problem. We don't even create proper chances to score. I don't know what to say, to be honest.
The Manchester United goalkeeper went on to say: 'We're not good enough, that's for sure. It's going to be very difficult now to be in the top four.'
'We knew before they were struggling, but how difficult it is to play here even when they are not in a good mood, but they play with more desire.
'They played on Wednesday, they were tired, they were a bit nervous, you could feel it, and even with that we lose the game.
'Of course it's not the perfect atmosphere. But you could see they were tired, they were nervous, and come on, they keep going and keep fighting to win. They had more desire than us. That is not acceptable, and it's very sad to lose today.'
Meanwhile, United interim boss Ralf Rangnick said: 'If you don't score a single goal in 95 minutes you have to be disappointed.
'We made a good start to the game, had control over the game in the first 25 minutes. We should have created more chances out of that domination in the first 25 minutes.
'Then we conceded a deflected shot, a goal after a deflected shot, and after that lost a little bit of our composure and stride.
'Second half we tried to add more creativity and verticality with our substitutions, but didn't always take the right decisions. In the end we couldn't score a single goal in 95 minutes.'
