The Cristiano Ronaldo moment spotted on camera after Manchester United's draw against Burnley

Cristiano Ronaldo's frustration after Manchester United drew with Burnley was pictured on camera on Tuesday night.

Ronaldo was dropped to the bench for the game at Turf Moor with Ralf Rangnick starting Edinson Cavani instead.

Rangnick explained that decision before the match: "Today it will require a lot of sprinting and chasing a lot of balls," he said.

"A lot of fighting for second balls and I think this profile fits perfectly for Edison. That's why I decided to start him today. We will also need Cristiano to start in the next couple of games."

After Jay Rodriguez had scored the equaliser in the second half to cancel out Paul Pogba's early goal, Ronaldo was eventually brought on with 20 minutes to play, but he was unable to find a goal, which means he's now failed to score in four league games.

While the 37-year-old has scored 14 goals in 26 appearances this term, the goal have been hard to come by in recent weeks.

After the full-time whistle went at Turf Moor, Ronaldo was pictured immediately storming down the tunnel to the dressing room.

Ronaldo has made a habit of reacting like that this season and that has been a source of controversy.

Some supporters feel he should applaud the fans while others believe his reaction is justified amid the club's poor results.
