YOU'VE BEEN WARNED: Cristiano Ronaldo
Real Madrid superstar Cristiano Ronaldo will head into the tournament on a good run of form, having bagged himself a brace in Lisbon.
But he’s been warned NOT to score in Portugal’s Group F opener against Iceland - by Game of Thrones strongman Hathor Bjornsson.
In the video below, Bjornsson, known for his role as The Mountain in the hit show, threatens to crush Ronaldo’s skull if he finds the net against his country next Tuesday.
It’s all very intimidating - until he erupts into a fit of a giggles right at the end.
Ronaldo, meanwhile, has warned Portugal not to get carried away, despite their rout of Estonia.
He told Record: “It was a good game. The team did well and we managed to get seven goals. We should be proud.
"But it's a friendly game and the fact we won does not say anything. We have to keep our feet on the ground.
"We should be proud. The team is well physically and so it is a good indicator for Europe. However, it is good to be with your feet firmly on the ground.
"It's always good, of course. We played a good game, the last game. The team is to be congratulated, it has shown that we are good, and that goes for training as well."
Austria and Hungary make up the rest of Group F.
