The two sides clashed on Sunday (July 31) in a game that ended in a 1-1 draw. Following an ineffective first-half, the 37-year-old was hooked at half-time for Amad Diallo, who put the Red Devils ahead shortly after coming on. The Spanish side equalized nine minutes later. Erik ten Hag was able to give many of his players minutes on the pitch before their opening Premier League game next weekend. This was Cristiano Ronaldo's first game for the club in 12 weeks after he was absent from their pre-season tour. This came amid relentless rumors that he wants to leave the club this summer in search of first-team football. Following his goalless display, The Manchester Evening News reported that the five-time Ballon d'Or winner was spotted leaving Old Trafford around the 80th-minute mark. He left along with Portugal teammate Diogo Dalot. Manchester United refused to comment on whether Ten Hag sanctioned their early exit from the ground. The Dutch boss was not questioned on the issue by MUTV after the game. Ronaldo was the only player subbed off at half time as he aimed to get up to speed with the rest of the squad in his first match back. However, supporters were unimpressed by the legendary forward leaving before the final whistle. Many questioned his commitment to the club on Twitter: Aarav@beatrixfudduthe king is gone twitter.com/CantonaManc/st…Gaz@CantonaMancNot even waited for the final whistle ‍9005869Not even waited for the final whistle ‍ https://t.co/jraOWdoPd5the king is gone twitter.com/CantonaManc/st… Mohammad Adnan@adnaaan433"Sunday the (comedy) king plays"Halftime ManU 0-0 RayoV46' Ronaldo subbed off48' ManU scores!The comedy king is back to home???Btw Congratulations @Amaddiallo_19 #MUFC #CristianoRonaldo464"Sunday the (comedy) king plays"Halftime ManU 0-0 RayoV46' Ronaldo subbed off48' ManU scores!The comedy king is back to home???Btw Congratulations @Amaddiallo_19 #MUFC #CristianoRonaldo https://t.co/l4qiXcsBea The Eastern Godfather@nnoromebukaIt was at this moment right here I felt something was off… the conversation didn’t look pleasant… Ronaldo didn’t seem to be taking the instructions, he was just talking back at ETH… and then he gets subbed off during the halftime break… I’m pretty sure that wasn’t the plan11It was at this moment right here I felt something was off… the conversation didn’t look pleasant… Ronaldo didn’t seem to be taking the instructions, he was just talking back at ETH… and then he gets subbed off during the halftime break… I’m pretty sure that wasn’t the plan https://t.co/EG8FiIBNBz Ray@raymderRonaldo listening to cheers just to leave at halftime Ronaldo listening to cheers just to leave at halftime https://t.co/taAs1oAvzS CHEMISTRY@TheOldBook11@MarkDHylo @markgoldbridge This guy is such a disgrace..

The first game back with the king, he does nothing and gets subbed of at halftime 0-0. His replacement then went on to score 2 minutes after.

The Dutchman demands high intensity from his side and a high press from his attackers. This is something Ronaldo has rarely been asked to do in the latter stages of his career. On the Portugal captain's fitness, Ten Hag told Sky Sports (as quoted by The Mirror): "I cannot tell in this moment. He is definitely not on the level of our current squad, because he missed a lot of week. So he needs games and he needs a lot of training."
