Cristiano Ronaldo suffers finishing downgrade on FIFA 22 amid poor Man United form

EA Sports has given Manchester United striker Cristiano Ronaldo a significant downgrade on FIFA 22, affecting a number of his key attributes.

United striker Ronaldo has only scored one goal in his last eight appearances for United and failed to feature in Sunday's 4-1 defeat against Manchester City in the Manchester derby. Reds boss Ralf Rangnick revealed in his pre-match interview that Ronaldo was not included in the matchday squad due to an issue with his hip flexor. It was later revealed that the Portuguese striker had flew to his home nation for two days before returning on Tuesday.

Former United captain Roy Keane was not convinced that the United star missed the clash against City due to an injury, insisting he does not "buy" what Rangnick said about Ronaldo's injury. The Portuguese international returned to United's Carrington training ground but the extent of his injury has yet to become clear.
