Portugal coach Fernando Santos threw his support behind Cristiano Ronaldo on Friday after the Real Madrid superstar was widely lambasted for describing Iceland as having a "small mentality" following their 1-1 draw at Euro 2016. Portugal were held in their opening Group F match on Tuesday by the Nordic island nation and Ronaldo slammed Iceland for their defensive approach, prompting a stream of criticism. "When people talk about fair play sometimes it makes me want to laugh," said Santos ahead of Saturday's crucial clash with Austria in Paris.
