GARETH BALE revealed a furious Cristiano Ronaldo would throw his boots in anger – even after 5-0 wins.
The Welsh wizard, 33, spent five years playing alongside Ronaldo for Real Madrid.
And he gave the inside story on what it was like to share a pitch and a changing room with the five-time Ballon d’Or winner.
Speaking on Martin Borgmeier’s YouTube channel at the BMW International Open Pro-Am golf tournament, Bale was quizzed on the Portuguese star.
He said: “He was actually okay. He had his moments.
“For example, if we win 5-0 and he didn’t score, he comes in and throws his boots like he’s angry.

“It’s like your team winning in the Ryder Cup but you didn’t get a point so you are angry.
“But he was a nice guy, nothing wrong, we didn’t really have any problems.
“A lot of people could be scared of how he is but if you’re not then it’s fine.”
Serial winner Ronaldo, 38, has racked up an incredible 31 team trophies and countless individual gongs.

He is now seemingly seeing out his career at Al-Nassr in Saudi Arabia following his dramatic exit from Manchester United.
Bale, meanwhile, secured his fifth Champions League winner’s medal against Liverpool last year.
The ex-Tottenham star left Real immediately afterwards, ending his nine-year stint with Los Blancos with 106 goals in 258 games, before a final swansong winning the MLS Cup with Los Angeles FC.
He added: “I enjoyed Tottenham more because it’s more of a family than Real Madrid and everyone is English.
“But I enjoyed Madrid more in terms of football.”
Bale announced his retirement in January following the World Cup in Qatar.
Since then, he has enjoyed playing a lot of golf.
And that included securing his very first hole-in-one – which was caught on camera in brilliant scenes.
