The Red Devils fans are still not happy with the fact that their team threw away the lead to lose to Young Boys in the Champions League.

The starman Ronaldo gave United the advantage after a wonderful through ball from Bruno Fernandes.

The game changed its complexion when Aaron Bissaka was shown a straight red card for a dangerous tackle.

And the Old Trafford outfit went on to concede two goals from the Swiss side to suffer their first defeat of the season.

Solskjaer has had a poor run in the tournament since he became United manager, recording seven defeats from 11 matches.

And reports recently stated that Conte was interested to become the Norwegian's successor if United decide to sack him.

However, considering the fact that Ronaldo is not interested in working under the former Inter Milan and Chelsea boss, Conte might have to look elsewhere.

Ronaldo's reaction after being substituted for Lingard

Legit.ng also reported that Cristiano Ronaldo was substituted in the 71st minute for Jesse Lingard during Man United's 2-1 loss to Young Boys in the Champions League, Marca, Mirror.

The five-time Ballon d'Or winner scored in the 13th minute to keep the Red Devils in control of the game only for Aaron Wan-Bissaka to be shown a red card for a dangerous tackle.
