Cristiano Ronaldo was absolutely furious after the final whistle as Portugal were held by Scotland.
On Tuesday night, Ronaldo and Co. arrived at Hampden Park looking to continue their perfect record in the UEFA Nations League.
As expected, the visitors dominated proceedings but failed to break down the stubborn Scottish defence as the match ended in a 0-0 draw.
The draw meant Scotland finally put an end to their four-match losing streak.
As the final whistle went, the camera was fixed on Ronaldo, who was less than happy with the referee’s decision to end the match after Portugal had won a corner.
The five-time Ballon d’Or winner was seen throwing his arms in the air and clapping sarcastically as he walked off the pitch. You can watch the footage below.

Speaking after the match, Portugal manager Roberto Martinez said: “Their goalkeeper was incredible. We couldn’t get a goal, but the performance was positive. Not many teams go undefeated.
“My responsibility is to look at new concepts. Results are a consequence of performances and, tonight, we deserved to win.”
He added: “The danger in these games is to think you’re in control and then suffer on the counter-attack. We kept a clean sheet, we were in control, but we lacked the final pass and the magic inside the area.”
Scotland boss Steve Clarke was also full of praise for his players, he said: “The players dug in and ground out a really good point for us. The fans can be nervous when the opposition have so much possession. But when they did create a big chance, Craig (Gordon) was there to save it. It’s the first time in a long time I have celebrated a save.
“John (Souttar) is playing every week with Rangers so he has that little bit more fitness. Grant (Hanley) who isn’t playing at Norwich, you have to give credit, after putting in those two performances.”Featured Image Credit: Optus Sport
