Cristiano Ronaldo has sent his Man United teammates a rallying call after their 2-2 hard-fought Champions League win over Atalanta.

MUnited were unable to build on their newfound momentum during their trip to Italy on Tuesday, November 2, settling a frustrating draw away from home.

Josip Ilicic scored the opener for Atalanta in the 12th minute before Ronaldo restored parity on the stroke of halftime.

Duvan Zapata made it 2-1 for the hosts shortly after the break, with the United attacker completing his brace with a stunning finish to ensure both teams share the spoils.

Ronaldo has now taken time to assess his side's performance against the Italian side, insisting the team must improve and adapt.

"The beginning was tough, Atalanta have a fantastic coach and they know what to do. I knew when I played in Juventus. We did our job well. We are lucky I scored but that's football," Mirror UK quoted Ronaldo saying.

"We still have to improve. We have different players and different systems. We have to adapt but it will take time. We have time to improve," he added.

Meanwhile, the United icon will be hoping to continue with his impressive run of form when the Red Devils take on rivals Man City at Old Trafford this Saturday, November 6.

Varane had just returned from another injury setback that kept him on the sidelines against Liverpool in October.

But having shown significant improvement, he was drafted in a back three of Eric Bailly and Harry Maguire as United took on Atalanta away in Italy.

However, the Frenchman could only last for about 45 minutes as he had to be withdrawn after hobbling off shortly before the break.

The World Cup-winning star headed straight down the tunnel and he is now a major doubt for his side's meeting with rivals Man City in the Manchester derby.
