Henry hits out at Hernandez for not celebrating with Ronaldo

The on-loan Manchester United striker swept the ball home from close range in tonight’s game.

THIERRY HENRY HAS criticised Javier Hernandez for not immediately celebrating with Cristiano Ronaldo after scoring Real Madrid’s winner against Atletico Madrid on Wednesday evening.

The on-loan Manchester United striker swept the ball home from close range after being set-up by Ronaldo but the Mexican wheeled away towards the supporters on his own, while his Madrid team-mates followed alongside Ronaldo.

“I don’t know about his future there. To be fair to him he doesn’t usually play. Tonight was his opportunity and we don’t even know if he’s going to play after that,” Henry told Sky Sports.

“He had a couple of chances in the game before that but I can tell you he can thank Ronaldo tonight. I know he went on to celebrate alone and everything but he can thank Ronaldo. For me, he has to.

“That is, for me, Ronaldo’s goal. What I don’t like after [the goal] is it seems like he won the World Cup [with his celebration]. Turn around and celebrate with Ronaldo.”
