It's been a tough Euro 2016 for Cristiano Ronaldo. 

The Portugal star - and world's highest-paid athlete - has yet to score a goal and even missed a penalty in his team's 0-0 draw against Austria last Saturday. 

And while the Real Madrid star is no stranger to the odd hissy fit, his reaction to a reporter's question this morning was thin-skinned even by his own standards.

Ronaldo was taking a stroll with his Portugal teammates by a lake this morning when a reporter tried to ask him a question about tonight's must-win game against Hungary. 

The star reacted by throwing the reporter's microphone into the lake. 

Perhaps Portugal's poor Euro 2016 showing might turn out to be a blessing in disguise for the striker - judging by his frayed nerves, he clearly needs a long holiday.
