PARIS, Nov 3 — Ole Gunnar Solskjaer compared Cristiano Ronaldo’s talismanic influence at Manchester United to NBA legend Michael Jordan after he scored twice to salvage a 2-2 draw at Atalanta on Tuesday.
However, another disjointed display bailed out by Ronaldo’s brilliant finishing will do little to ease the pressure on United boss Solskjaer. However, that was just the Red Devils second clean sheet in 22 games and their problems at the back were again easily exposed in Bergamo. United suffered another blow when Raphael Varane was forced off midway through the first-half with what appeared the recurrence of a groin injury.
But United have only won five of those games as Solskjaer continues to struggle to find the right balance goes on. Despite being starved of service for the majority of the second-half, Ronaldo delivered again in stoppage time.
