Cristiano Ronaldo and Bernardo Silva had hilarious reactions to Bruno Fernandes’ half-time tunnel talk during Portugal’s 2-0 win over Iceland.

Victory for Roberto Martinez’s side took it to 10 wins in 10 Euro 2024 qualifiers on Sunday night.

While the national team may have dazzled on the pitch, it was their half-time antics that made the headlines after the game.

Midway through the game, United captain Fernandes appeared to address the team in the tunnel as they awaited the second half.

In a video that later appeared on X, Ronaldo and Silva can be seen listening to the conversation before turning to each other and giggling.

Nasr striker Ronaldo turned away with a smile on his face, lowered his head and prepared for the second half.

Portugal were one goal ahead thanks to Fernandez’s first-half strike, with Ricardo Horta doubling their advantage in the second half.

Martinez’s side made history with this result as they celebrated a “perfect” qualifying campaign – ten wins in ten games.

Fernandes’ former Manchester United teammate Ronaldo is the second-highest scorer in qualifying, with ten goals behind only Belgium’s Romelu Lukaku.

The 38-year-old recently made headlines for his furious response to comments made by former Sporting Lisbon academy starlet Fabio Payim.

Paim was regarded as one of Portugal’s most promising players in the 2000s, with reports that even Ronaldo himself considered Paim the most promising young player of his generation.

However, Paim failed to fulfill his potential, never making an appearance for Sporting Lisbon and being loaned out of the club six times – including at Chelsea, where he never played a competitive match.

In an interview with the podcast hosted by PT Clipes, Paim said he deserves at least one of Ronaldo’s five Ballon d’Or trophies and that if he had half the brain of Cristiano, he could have competed with the Portuguese icon and Leon Nel Messi comparison. ‘.

Ronaldo responded savagely to the video, writing on Instagram: ‘Wtf??? Who is he.’

This is despite numerous reports that Ronaldo once said after moving to Manchester United in 2003: “If you think I’m good, just wait and see Fabio Paim.”

Payim told the podcast: “Cristiano Ronaldo should give me one of his Ballon d’Or awards. I went to Sporting Lisbon when I was seven and I grew up there.

“Those were glory days and I won everything I could win. I didn’t get to where I could have been, but I marked a generation. If people haven’t forgotten, it’s because I marked them.

“When I was happy, I said I thought Cristiano Ronaldo could give me the Ballon d’Or. But that’s modest. If I had half the head of Cristiano, it wouldn’t be him and Messi.

Everything has just begun!
