On 16 March, in the second leg of the Champions League quarter-finals, Manchester United lost 0-1 at home to Atletico Madrid, so that the total score of the two legs was eliminated 1-2. Atletico goalkeeper Oblak scored well throughout the game, with Lodi scoring the only goal to eliminate the Red Devils directly at Old Trafford. Some of the referee's decisions in this game also caused controversy, including the Ilanga break through the ground before Manchester United conceded the ball, the referee did not have any indication, including C Ronaldo and others were dissatisfied with the referee.
Cristiano Ronaldo missed the quarter-finals of the Champions League, so his first season back at Manchester United was doomed to be empty, and manchester United had all left the three cups of the League Cup, the FA Cup and the Champions League, and the league level withdrew from the title battle early. Even next season's Champions League hopes are not great, the current Manchester United are 1 point behind Arsenal in three games, the Red Devils only have 9 games left, and it is extremely difficult to catch up with the Champions League next season.
The last time Ronaldo was empty was in the 2009-10 season, when Ronaldo did not win the championship in his first season after joining Real Madrid, when the star-studded Real Madrid was suppressed by Barca. For the next 11 seasons, Ronaldo won the championship trophy every season, and this time he returned to Manchester United, but unfortunately did not win any of the championship trophies.
Ronaldo's biggest task in 2022 has become to impact the World Cup, they also need to participate in the World Cup play-offs, a single-game win-loss format is necessary to win all to qualify for the World Cup, which is a great pressure for each team. The Portuguese team led by Cristiano Ronaldo is played against Turkey in the first round, and if it passes, it is very likely that the next step will meet the New Branch European Championship champions Italy. So for Ronaldo, in the case that the club's task is no longer large, impacting the World Cup has become the most important thing.
It is worth mentioning that Messi did not enter the Champions League quarterfinals this time, this is the second time in the Champions League quarterfinals did not see Messi and C Ronaldo figures, both are already veterans, their state and peak period did decline a lot, so many people said that the opportunity to see Messi and C Ronaldo's wonderful performance has become less and less, hoping that C Ronaldo can meet messi in the World Cup.
Also look forward to the next performance of the Portuguese team led by C Ronaldo in the play-offs, strive to achieve the desired results, and enter the World Cup, although C Ronaldo has a super god's personal performance in the World Cup, but the team level has been poor, this time also hope that he can realize his dream.
