Cristiano Ronaldo: Portuguese station CMTV send diver to recover microphone Cristiano Ronaldo angrily threw in a lake

PORTUGUESE station CMTV have sensationally RECOVERED their microphone that Cristiano Ronaldo angrily threw into a lake 10 days ago.

It was on the morning of Portugal’s 3-3 draw against Hungary in their final group stage match when Ronaldo – who was enduring a frustrating spell at the time – saw red when asked a question from CMTV, a station he has had a long feud with.

He had been marked out of the game against Iceland, and missed a penalty against Austria but being so fired up certainly spurred him on against Hungary – he went on to score twice in the game as Portugal progressed from the group stage.

Ronaldo once sued and won a case against the Portuguese television station on grounds of invasion of privacy, and has boycotted the station since 2014.

Now, over a week later, CMTV have sent a wetsuited diver right down to the bottom of the lake in Lyon to retrieve the microphone, in all its muddy glory.

This coming Wednesday, it is Ronaldo vs Gareth Bale in battle of the Galacticos as Portugal take on Wales in the Euro 2016 semi-final. Which Real Madrid ace will come out on top?
