Cristiano Ronaldo has defended his decision to storm down the tunnel after Manchester United's 1-1 draw with Everton earlier this month, maintaining that his reaction to losses would not alter.
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer surprised many by benching the 36-year-old talismanic figure for the match before the international break, provoking significant criticism of the Norwegian manager.
After Anthony Martial's opener in the first half, Andros Townsend finished off a swift breakaway attack to level the scores, and even though Ronaldo came on as a replacement in the second half, he couldn't change the game's outcome.
At the full-time whistle, the five-time Ballon d'Or winner was visibly furious and walked straight down the tunnel, muttering to himself.
‘I don’t like to lose, draw. For me it’s a loss to draw with Everton at home,’ he told Sky Sports.
