Video footage showed Ronaldo appearing to knock a young boy&rsquo;s mobile phone to the ground after United&rsquo;s 1-0 defeat at Goodison Park on April 9. The 37-year-old was cautioned by Merseyside Police and the Football Association last month charged Ronaldo over the incident. United manager Ten Hag has spoken to Ronaldo and told the Portugal striker that the club will support his case.&nbsp;
Ten Hag initially seemed to suggest that Ronaldo would contest the charge, but a club source subsequently indicated that the Dutch coach&rsquo;s answer was down to a slight misinterpretation of the question. The source said Ten Hag was defending Ronaldo and signalling the club&rsquo;s support ahead of the player speaking at a personal FA hearing and offering mitigation as he looks to avoid a ban.&nbsp;
