Cristiano Ronaldo missed a shocking penalty during a Nations League clash with Denmark

Cristiano Ronaldo's struggles for Portugal continued on Sunday evening, as the 40-year-old missed a penalty just six minutes into his side's Nations League clash against Denmark.

Ronaldo's blunder came hours after he lashed out at reporters for asking 'disrespectful' questions over his future with the national team.

'Honestly, some of the questions you've asked were just disrespectful. If you want answers from me, look me in the eyes when you ask,' Ronaldo told reporters after he was asked if he is still capable of completing a full match at the international level.

After Ronaldo was brought down by Manchester United full back Patrick Dorgu in the fifth minute of Portugal's clash with Denmark on Sunday, he stepped up to take the spot kick.
