Cristiano Ronaldo, figure and controversy: Determinant in the result, but he could be expelled again for hitting too much

Manchester United seeks to return to the path of victory in the Premier League and things are going steady against Tottenham, with a goal from Cristiano Ronaldo. However, the Portuguese was not far from the controversy, since he starred in a strong cross with Cristian Romero in a divided play.

Everything was happiness for the "Red Devils" with the goal that the Portuguese star had scored in the 39th minute. Despite having the advantage, they did not stop attacking and a few moments later they approached the rival area with danger, although in the end they did not manage to progress due to lack of space.

On the edge of the area, Cristiano Ronaldo was getting ready to control the pass, but the Argentine Cristian Romero managed to anticipate with intelligence. However, the ball was free and both players went looking for possession, fighting hand-to-hand as they accelerated speed.

Faced with the notorious possibility of being overtaken, Cristiano Ronaldo decided to raise his left arm in order to stop the defender's career. The result had a double contrast, since it prevented the Tottenham player from creating a counterattack, although it left something felt on the lawn of the imposing 'Spurs' home.
