Former Barcelona and Arsenal striker Thierry Henry, has lashed out at Javier ‘Chicharito’ Hernandez, for not celebrating with Cristiano Ronaldo, after netting the winner for Real Madrid against Atletico Madrid on Wednesday.
With the second leg looking to end goalless like last week’s match, Ronaldo teed up the on-loan Manchester United player, to sweep the ball home from close range.
After scoring, Chicharito immediately ran towards the fans, while his team-mates celebrated with 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.”
Madrid have now qualified for the semi-final of the competition and remain in the frame to defend the Cup they won last year.
