Right before you get ready to throw Cristiano Ronaldo under the bus for this unprofessional act, the reporter speaks out and sheds light as to why Cristiano Ronaldo threw his mic in the lake.
In case you think that celebrities or athletes aren’t watching, they sure and they make several mental notes as to who is talking trash. Cristiano Ronaldo was asked a routine question in regards to his team, Portugal as they going to play Hungary today at 12 pm EST. Cristiano recognized the reporter and chucked his mic in the lake.
The reporter spoke to BBC once the incident occurred. Here’s what he had to say.
The reporter spoke with BBC after the incident and said, “I’m not sure why he did it. I think it was a momentary thing. I think he would not have done it if he had thought about it.”
“We are a TV channel of a major newspaper in Portugal. We produce a lot of news about him. Some of it he doesn’t like. Perhaps that’s why he did it.”
The reporter indirectly owned up to his station’s work. In case you thought this was it, there’s more. The reporter also said that he is going to be on the same plane as Ronaldo. This is the epitome of an awkward situation.
