And Ten Hag added, in statements to the press conference in preparation for the match, about Ronaldo’s behavior by leaving the pitch of the Tottenham stadium before the end of the match in protest against his lack of participation, “I am the coach, I am responsible for everything in the team, I must set the standards, after the Rayo Vallecano match and his early departure. I said it was not acceptable, the second time there should be penalties, football is a team sport, Ronaldo refused to play against Tottenham, and of course we will miss him tomorrow against Chelsea.
