Cristiano Ronaldo took to social media to post a message on Thursday evening following Manchester United’s late collapse at Chelsea.
Erik ten Hag’s men had erased the Blues’ two-goal lead through goals from Alejandro Garnacho and Bruno Fernandes by the time the half-time whistle blew, and a second goal from the former in the second half all but sealed the victory . on the road after the weekend’s draw with Brentford.
But a late penalty from Diogo Dalot handed the momentum back to the hosts, and after Cole Palmer equalized from the spot in stoppage time, the boyhood United fan heaped more misery on the Red Devils, with a match winner coming in at just 82 struck seconds later.
Moments after Palmer’s winner, Ronaldo posted a photo of himself with the caption: “Happy days,” with a green heart emoji.
And some fans immediately noticed the timing of the message, claiming it wasn’t a coincidence.
One said: ‘I love the timing idol, chef Ten Hag’,
