Garnacho not helped by imitating Ronaldo's celebrations

Alejandro Garnacho scored twice against Chelsea and celebrated in the same way as Cristiano Ronaldo did when he played for Real Madrid. The Manchester United player sat on the fence separating the Stamford Bridge stands from the pitch. His strike, which made it 2-3, was not enough for the Red Devils to win the game as they ended up losing 4-3.

Erik ten Hag's men appeared set for a famous victory after storming back from 2-0 down to lead 3-2 in a staggering game containing a combined 47 shots. But Cole Palmer had the last word, levelling from the penalty spot in the 100th minute and then netting the winner moments later.
Alejandro Garnacho's brace was overshawdowed by the Blues' performances and there are assumptions that the Argentinian winger has no good luck celebrating his goals like Cristiano Ronaldo.
Garnacho couldn't help himself and celebrated in his favourite way, in true Ronaldo style. This time, he imitated a celebration of the Portuguese when he played for Real Madrid, when he sat on the fence separating the pitch from the stands.
Garnacho's joy was short-lived as Palmer scored two more goals to give the hosts victory. And the celebration backfired on the Manchester United player, who is receiving criticism on social media.
It is not the first time Garnacho has defied the opposition with such celebrations. Against Copenhagen, he ordered to be quiet and the Danish team ended up coming from behind. Against Galatasaray, he put his hand to his ear as if he could not hear the fans after scoring and the match ended in a draw. Chelsea were the last to see his celebration and spoil his party.
