Cristiano Ronaldo told his Portugal team-mates his Champions League medals paled into insignificance compared to their Euro 2016 triumph in an emotional post-match speech in Paris after this year's final.
In newly-published video footage, released four months after July's showpiece occasion, the Portuguese captain delivers a passionate address to the rest of the squad in which he hails the work of manager Fernando Santos.
And a shirtless Ronaldo — often derided for being selfish and self-centred — says 'all individual trophies and the Champions League' were forgettable compared to success with the national team.
