Video: Cristiano Ronaldo throws reporter’s mic into lake

Cristiano Ronaldo appears to be feeling the pressure at Euro 2016 after grabbing a journalist’s microphone and throwing it into a lake ahead of Portugal’s crucial final group game against Hungary on Wednesday.

The footage broadcast on Portuguese news channel CMTV shows the reporter approaching the Real Madrid star to ask about the game.

Ronaldo reacts angrily, grabbing the microphone and tossing it into the water.

Disappointing draws in the first two games at the tournament have left Portugal needed a victory against Hungary to be sure of their place in the last 16.
