Man Utd refute claims that Garnacho was benched due to Ten Hag comments - Paul Vegas

Reports surfaced suggesting that Garnacho was left out of the starting lineup following his online support of former United striker Cristiano Ronaldo, who had publicly criticized manager Erik ten Hag.

But the Manchester Evening News says the decision was based on tactics rather than breaches of discipline.

Garnacho eventually came on in the second-half and scored United's third goal in the 3-0 win at St Mary's.

The Argentina winger had replaced fellow goalscorer Marcus Rashford on 73 minutes.
