Cristiano Ronaldo has sent out a message to Portugal fans after his side fell to a disappointing goalless draw with Scotland last night.
Steve Clarke’s side held firm in the Nations League clash at Hampden Park to claim their first point of the group so far, with Ronaldo storming off the pitch at the end of the game.
The 39-year-old was furious with referee Lawrence Visser, who blew the full-time whistle right before Portugal could take a corner.
Ronaldo began gesturing towards the officials, waving his arms in the air, shaking his head and putting his thumbs down before marching straight down the tunnel.
