This, however generated reactions from football fans on Twitter.

@xSh7n: “Ten Hag on Ronaldo walking down the tunnel early: “I will deal with that tomorrow, not today.” Deal how? Ronaldo could buy the entire club that’s your fault you can’t disrespect Ronaldo he is not a standard player like Elanga or the rest of your team you are talking to much.”
@Mrjamieohara1: “Poor from Ronaldo have your day 03717223344 you can’t walk down the tunnel when there’s 5 minutes left, lack of respect for the rest of his team mates @talkSPORT.”
@UTDxGoat: “You’re a sick human being if you don’t feel bad for Ronaldo ? –
@markgoldbridge: “Ronaldo walks off down the tunnel…. I blame the Glazers. They’ve created this mess by not letting him go when Ten Hag said it was ok.”
@RonaldoW7_: “Cristiano Ronaldo has been Super professional this season, Ten Hag has shown nothing but disrespect to him.
“Made Ronaldo warmup 2 Times only to bring Elanga on, happened in Liverpool game as well where he brought Martial and Fred before him.”
@AlexCTurk: “Cristiano Ronaldo is embarrassing and don’t even bother coming at me.
” The greatest performance of Erik ten Hag’s reign so far and he tries to make it about himself because United played levels better without trying to accommodate him. Again.
“Just becoming sad at this point…”
