Sympathise a bit, but he didn’t react. As the commentator said here, done for pace and the surprise of it.

It's how he rolls

Portuguese FA has confirmed Ronaldo is claiming it.

He didn’t have a chance, wasn’t great that he just stared at it mind. Solid handling rest of the game so far. He’s the one we’d bring in as backup though right? Not a Dave replacement?

Dalot’s really matured this year, full of confidence

I think the Swiss keeper should have had it.

We need to sort this De Gea contract extension.

I’d say so, given he’s in his 30’s. That said, we know United like an old man these days though

29 minutes gone and the commentary team acknowledge there is ‘a different vibe and energy without Ronaldo’

Have they ever said that about us this season?

We really, really don’t.

Glad he could get time off from duty

Towering

Ooof, that’s a towering header

esters in crisis

Portugal could go all the way

Ronaldo-esque. Just like him. Basically his goal.

Ronaldo retiring with the WC in his hand. Written in the stars.

Quite enjoying how much they’re smashing Pepe up and his response

Lovely ball from Bruno. He’s got to score. Decent save though.

Very good save that one, but he has to bury it to finish the game.

Great advantage by the ref.

Think this game should prove to most that Felix isn’t a no.9 and isn’t the player we need, as tidy and talented as he is.

The kid Ramos doesn’t look lightening quick which is a bit of a concern, makes good runs though & his touch seems excellent.

You’re probably right but he’d still be a fantastic addition to any side.

He’s silky & full of talent, he’s just not a priority when he’s so expensive. If we managed to sell any of the deadwood and added him alongside a striker & another midfielder sure. Why not.

When are Dubai taking over again?
