VIDEO: Cristiano Ronaldo walks out of press conference ahead of Roma clash
Cristiano Ronaldo walked out of a press conference Tuesday after the Real Madrid star grew frustrated with a series of questions - specifically, inquiries about La Liga rivals Barcelona, and his goal-scoring drought away from home.
Speaking with reporters ahead of Real Madrid's Champions League round of 16 tie with Roma, Ronaldo, sitting alongside manager Zinadine Zidane, began to show his frustration when asked about his relationship with Karim Benzema and Gareth Bale as reporters attempted to draw a parallel with the Barca trio of Lionel Messi, Luis Suarez, and Neymar.
"That's what you say," Ronaldo responded when asked if the unity between the Barcelona trio is the reason for their success.
"When I was at Manchester United with Paul Scholes, Ryan Giggs, and Rio Ferdinand, we only said 'good morning' and 'good night' and we were formidable on the pitch.
"We don't give each other kisses and hugs. I don't have to go to dinner with Bale or Benzema or invite them to my house. What's important is our understanding on the pitch. Little meals or kisses and hugs don't mean anything."
He finally drew the line when reporters asked him about his away form, which has seen the Portuguese international go four games without a goal on the road.
Before getting up and leaving a grinning Zidane alone at the podium, Ronaldo had a question of his own for one reporter: "Can you name one player who has scored more away from home than me since I've been in Spain? No, you can't, there aren't any. Bye everyone."
