Ahead of their Premier League clash with Watford on Saturday, legendary attacker, Cristiano Ronaldo has said that him and his Manchester United teammates must rise to the occasion and do what ought to be done to save the team.

United were crushed 5-0 by rivals Liverpool and then played off the park by Manchester City in a 2-0 defeat in early November.

Before then, the Red Devils were thrashed 4-2 to Leicester City and suffered to play a 2-2 draw with Atalanta in the Champions League.

This leaves them in sixth position in the table, nine points adrift of Premier League leaders Chelsea at the 11-game mark.

A make-or-break run of fixtures into December begins with away trips to Watford and Chelsea in the Premier League on Saturday, either side of a vital Champions League trip to Villarreal, which could determine United’s passage to the knockout phase as group winners or runners-up.

They will play Chelsea and rejuvenated Arsenal side afterwards.

And Ronaldo feels that, “Time to role up the sleeves once again and just get the job done! Let’s chase what we are trying to achieve this season! 💪🏽 #MUFC.”

Uganda head coach Paul Put has outlined three key areas his side must focus on to secure victory against Nigeria when both teams clash in Tuesday’s Africa Cup of Nations tie.

Put’s side must claim all three points against the Super Eagles or risk an early exit from the competition. The Cranes have just one point in Group C after their opening two matches.
A win against Nigeria could see Uganda qualify as one of the best third-placed teams.

However, speaking at his pre-match press conference on Monday, Put said that for Uganda to overcome Eric Chelle’s side, they must “concentrate be very prepared and win their duels” against Nigeria.

“We have to go for it [win against Nigeria] and we will do it,” Put said.

“Nigerians play at a high level in Europe, so we have to be very concentrated, very prepared and win our duels, which is one of the strong points of Nigeria.”
