Manchester United are looking into an incident involving Cristiano Ronaldo and what eyewitnesses say was a mobile phone hitting the ground after his side’s defeat at Goodison Park.
Footage, taken by @EvertonHub, shows Ronaldo lowering his right hand towards the ground before what appears to be a phone colliding with and bouncing up off the surface, as he exited the pitch following the 1-0 defeat
United are aware of the footage, which is being widely shared and discussed on social media following the game, and the club are looking into it.
It was a bad day on the pitch for Ronaldo and Manchester United as Anthony Gordon’s first-half goal gave the hosts three points.
United, who have won just once in five Premier League games, now look unlikely to qualify for the Champions League next season.
