Man Utd players including Cristiano Ronaldo criticised by Erik ten Hag for leaving friendly early

It was unacceptable that several players, including the world's most valuable player, left the pre-season game early.

The player had been replaced at half-time.

He was pictured leaving with Diogo Dalot, who had been in the directors' box with several players.

Ten Hag told Viaplay that they are a team.

This is not acceptable for everyone.

The game ended in a draw as United could not find a way to score a goal.

The man who returned to United last season after spells with Real Madrid and Bianconeri wants to move away from the club to be a part of the European Championship.

He missed the pre-season tour of Thailand and Australia due to personal reasons.

"Ronaldo is in our plans" was Ten Hag's previous statement.

The new signings played for an hour against Rayo in a game set up by Ten Hag for the players who weren't involved in Saturday's loss.

On Sunday, August 7th, United will play their first game of the 2022-23 premier league season.
