Goal machine Cristiano Ronaldo brutally ignored Liverpool icon and former England defender Jamie Carragher in the build-up to Manchester United's high-profile meeting with Jurgen Klopp's men in the English Premier League (EPL) on Tuesday. A day after Ronaldo opted to blank Carragher before the Premier League game at Old Trafford, former Liverpool defender Jose Enrique has called out the former Juventus and Real Madrid superstar for disrespecting the Anfield stalwart.
Sharing an explosive post about Ronaldo across his social media accounts, former Liverpool left-back Enrique said that he will never like Ronaldo as a player because of his distasteful gesture towards the ex-England defender. Launching an attack on Ronaldo, Enrique also opined that Man United icons Roy Keane and Gary Neville are "killing him" on the broadcast.
“Keane and Gary(Neville) they have been killing him on Sky Sports as well so I’m sure is not because of that. Someone that played football for that long and made so many appearances for Liverpool at least you say hi out of respect. Another thing why I will never like Cristiano Ronaldo and when football finish let’s see who he will have around being like this,” the former Liverpool wrote.
During Man United's home clash with Liverpool in the English top flight, Carragher was roped in for the punditry duty by Sky Sports at Old Trafford. Benched for the blockbuster clash at Old Trafford, Ronaldo was warming up on the pitch when CR7 decided to gatecrash the coverage of the Premier League contest.
Though Ronaldo was all smiles when he met Kean and Neville, the Portugal captain completely ignored Carragher at Old Trafford. "I get a custard pie for getting it right on Ronaldo from day one! The custard pie for him from ETH shows the Manager thinks the same!! Maybe the ex Man United Legends (sycophants!) will now agree with me," Carragher reacted after the video of the incident sparked a hilarious meme fest on social media.
