Against Chelsea, Man United Have a Bad Record with Ronaldo

DBasia.news – Manchester United will try to stop its bad trend in the Premier League 2021-2022 when they meet Chelsea, this weekend. Unfortunately, the Red Devils were accompanied by Cristiano Ronaldo’s bad record when they met the Blue.

Manchester United have only won one of their last seven Premier League games. This made last season’s runner up fall out of the title race by sitting in eighth place.

The bad trend made Ole Gunnar Solskjaer kicked out of the manager’s chair. Now Michael Carrick is temporarily taking control with caretaker status.

Carrick made his debut after bringing Manchester United to a 2-0 win over Villarreal in the Champions League and ensuring themselves through to the round of 16. Ronaldo contributed one goal in the match.

Carrick is almost certain to return to relying on the Portuguese superstar when he travels to Stamford Bridge, Sunday (28/11) at 23.30 WIB. But Chelsea is in fact one of the teams that Ronaldo is difficult to break into.

In his first period at Manchester United, Ronaldo has made 15 appearances against Chelsea. As a result, he was only able to bring his team to five wins, four draws, and six defeats.

Ronaldo’s goal stats against Chelsea are also quite bad. he was only able to collect one goal.

Ronaldo’s only goal against Chelsea came in the 2008 Champions League final.

Ronaldo’s single goal against Chelsea was created in the 2008 Champions League final. At that time he broke into Petr Cech’s goal through a header using Wes Brown’s bait.

While in the Premier League, Ronaldo has not been able to score against Chelsea in ten matches. He only recorded two assists and received four yellow cards.

The story is not much different in other events such as the FA Cup, League Cup, and Community Shield. Ronaldo was also unable to score against Chelsea.

This certainly does not bode well for Manchester United. Carrick may need to prepare a different tactic to stop Ronaldo’s bad record.

But this bad record is believed to increase Ronaldo’s motivation to break into Chelsea’s goal. Moreover, the Blues are now the team with the best defense because they have only conceded four goals.
