'Ronaldo would've scored that' - Keane frustrated by Rashford's wasteful finishing against Chelsea

  • Rashford missed great chance vs Chelsea
  • Keane said Ronaldo would have finished it
  • Portugal star dropped from squad

WHAT HAPPENED? Rashford started up front in Saturday's Premier League game against Chelsea and saw a great opportunity blocked by goalkeeper Kepa Arrizabalaga in the first half, much to Keane's annoyance. However, the Red Devils eventually fought for a point in a 1-1 draw at Stamford Bridge.

WHAT THEY SAID: Discussing the chance, the United legend said on Sky Sports: "Could he do better with the first touch, could he try and go around the goalkeeper? We have to give the keeper a little bit of credit, he's out there quick, but Marcus will be thinking that's a big chance for any striker. I think probably Ronaldo would have scored that."

THE BIGGER PICTURE: Ronaldo was left out of the squad because he walked down the tunnel before the end of his side's 2-0 win against Tottenham in midweek after he was left on the bench for the whole match.
