Even after last night's (Thursday) narrow victory over Omonia Nicosia 2:3, it doesn't stop the English media from continuing to bash Cristiano Ronaldo.
The Portuguese did start in the lineup - but again failed to impress, not to mention scoring goals.
The Portuguese did cook, but he also made a few misses from close situations and the English 'Sun' did not feel sorry for him: "A game he will want to forget, Ronaldo had a terrible night in Cyprus with a miss in front of an open goal, when the substitutes Rashford and Martial achieved the victory.
The bench players saved the Portuguese".
The Sun added: "This was another blow to Ronaldo, who this time received the respect he deserves from Tan Haah."
Coach Eric ten Haag said after the game: "It was just the warm-up, on Sunday we have to respond.
It was very disappointing that Martial was injured in the preseason."
The Dutchman added: "We were too static, so we made substitutions, which this time had a great impact.
We started well, but then there was a mistake that caused our bad minutes and we will have to learn from that."
Marcus Rashford concluded: "Martial is important for us, when he's happy he's a great player."
were we wrong
We will fix it!
