Ralf Rangnick has told Cristiano Ronaldo that no player is bigger than the team and feels the Manchester United star went over the top when he protested about being taken off at Brentford.
Ronaldo reacted angrily after he was replaced midway through the second half of the 3-1 win on Wednesday, gesticulating and throwing his coat to the ground before he was placated by Rangnick in the dugout.
But United’s interim boss defended his decision on Friday and said it was fully justified when substitute Marcus Rashford scored to seal victory.
