Ex-Man Utd caretaker manager Rangnick responds to Ronaldo blast

Austria coach Ralf Rangnick has responded to criticism from Manchester United striker Cristiano Ronaldo.

The 63-year-old was appointed as Manchester United manager last season after the sacking of Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.

But Ronaldo told Morgan that he was not impressed with the move by the club.

He said: "If you're not even a coach, how are you going to be the boss of Manchester United?

"I'd never even heard of him."

But Rangnick has since shrugged: "I'm the team boss of Austria's national team, it's not my job to judge that.

"[It is] the task of Manchester United and the sports journalists".
