Breaking news: As Ralf Ragnick and ronaldo sends a clear message to Elenga after missing a crucial penalty against Middlesbrough in the shootout.

 Cristiano Ronaldo was pictured consoling 

Manchester United youngster Anthony

 Elanga, after the Swedish teenager missed

 a penalty against Middlesbrough.




The Red Devils were knocked out of 


the FA Cup by Chris Wilder's side on 


penalties after Elanga's spot-kick miss


 gave Boro an 8-7 shootout victory,


 following a 1-1 draw in regulated time.



Looking dejected after his miss, Elanga 


was quickly swarmed on by United team


-mates as well as Ronaldo, who seemed


 to offer the youngster some advice.





Ronaldo missed a spot-kick of his 


own earlier in the game when the score 


was 0-0, but smashed home his penalty


 in the shootout.



Elanga was the 16th taker after every


 single Man United and Middlesbrough 


player buried their penalty's in the back


 of the net.



The Swedish teen was Ralf Rangnick's 


eighth penalty taker, meaning it had come


 down to players who do not initially put


 themselves forward.





Ralf Rangnick and Bruno Fernandes were


 pictured consoling Elanga after the 


crucial moment and he will need the 


team to rally around him now.



The miss will come as a real blow to the


 19-year-old, who has recently made a 


name for himself in the first-team with


 impressive performances in their 


Premier League games.



The Swede scored his first league goal 


in United's 3-1 away win against Brentford


 last month and has featured in every


 game since.
