Supporters of Real Madrid will be fearing the worst after Cristiano Ronaldo was subbed off in the second half of Portugal's friendly versus France on Saturday, and was subsequently seen with an ice pack on his left knee wrapped in bandages.
There's likely no reason to hit the panic button yet, particularly as Ronaldo didn't appear overly concerned while sitting on the bench at the end of the match, which France went on to win 2-1.
However, until the extent of the injury is confirmed, there will inevitably be a great deal of speculation regarding the status of Ronaldo's knee.
