Fans are all saying the same thing about ‘cursed’ Cristiano Ronaldo after Man Utd’s Europa League loss to Real Sociedad

MANCHESTER UNITED fans seem to be in agreement after the Red Devils were beaten by Real Sociedad in the Europa League.

Cristiano Ronaldo played his first game in the competition for 20 years – but could not inspire the Red Devils to victory.

Erik ten Hag put CR7 in from the start after relegating to the bench for United’s last four matches.

But after winning all four of those games, including one against table-topping Arsenal, United lost as soon as Ronaldo came back into the side.

The Red Devils also lost the other game Ronaldo has started this season – the 4-0 humiliation at Brentford.

And fans don’t believe it’s a coincidence, joking that Ronaldo is “cursed” as United now seem to lose whenever he starts.

One wrote on Twitter: “Ronaldo is cursed poor guy.”

While another joked: “Ronaldo has cursed this team.”

A third pointed out: “When we start Ronaldo we lose.”

Another commented: “We have lost every game this season when we start Ronaldo.”

Even when Ronaldo came off the bench in the win against Arsenal, the Gunners scored to make it 1-1 just seconds later.

Fortunately for Ronaldo, the Red Devils went on to win that game 3-1.

But the Portuguese ace has rotten luck when named among the starting lineup ever since the Premier League restarted.

After scoring 24 goals in all competitions last campaign, and finishing as club top scorer, Ronaldo is yet to get off the mark for the 2022-23 campaign.

He has not found the back of the net in SEVEN games so far this season.

Old Trafford fell silent for a minute before the game to mark the death of Her Majesty Elizabeth II.

Both sets of players also wore black armbands in tribute.
