Cristiano Ronaldo was in the mood on Saturday.
Portugal's captain and attacking talisman, not happy with just a single goal in the Selecao's World Cup qualifier against Hungary, matched his brace from the Euro 2016 meeting between the two sides by firing an unstoppable low free-kick that pinged the post before rippling the mesh.
