JAKARTA - Cristiano Ronaldo opened his voice after his raid at Old Trafford Stadium went viral. The previous star was caught entering the dressing room before the match ended during the match against Tottenham Hotspur and left the stadium when the team celebrated victory.
The action left Ronaldo off the list of players Erik ten Hag will bring to Chelsea headquarters this weekend. After being dropped, Ronaldo responded in a statement on his Instagram account.
The 37-year-old pleaded guilty and did not deny his attitude when Man Utd vs Tottenham. He also admitted that he tried to set a good example, but that effort did not always go smoothly.
"I started a very young career, the older and most experienced players have always been a very important example for me," Ronaldo said in his statement.
"Therefore, in the future, I always try to set an example for young people who grow up in all the teams I defend. Unfortunately it is not always possible and sometimes the heat of the moment controls me," continued Ronaldo, who claimed his attitude when MU vs Tottenham was a moment of emotion.
Previously, through the club's official statement, the Red Devils confirmed that Ronaldo would not take part in the match against Chelsea.
"Cristiano will not be part of Manchester United's squad for Saturday's match against Chelsea. The rest of the squad are fully focused on preparing for the match," said MU.
With that condition, Ronaldo will undergo separate training from the first team at Carrington and will not go to London. CR7 accepts this, but he admits he can't wait to rejoin the team.
"Right now I feel I have to keep working hard at Carrington, supporting my team-mates, and being ready for everything in any game. Feeling the pressure is not an option, can't wait to be together again," Ronaldo wrote.
