Cristiano Ronaldo never fails to grab headlines. Whether it is with his goals or with his actions on the field which always get captured in the cameras. Now, here was another occasion where the five-time Ballon d’Or winner was once again in the limelight. So this time the Portugal star was unhappy with the referee during the match as he called the half-time a few second earlier during the friendly match against Spain. This surely did not go down well with CR7 who was quite agitated and even walked up to the referee to have a word with him. He gestured the referee to look into the clock right behind, but the official walked off looking at his wristwatch. Cristiano Ronaldo Starts Preparing for UEFA Nations League 2020-21 Game Against France (See Pics).
