New Delhi: If there is a sport Chris Gayle loves more than cricket, it has to be football.
The star left-hander is a Manchester United fan, closely tracking the team's fortunes on most Premier League weekends.
His favorite player though is Real Madrid's Cristiano Ronaldo. Hence Gayle rooting for Portugal at this year's Euro comes hardly as surprise.
On Saturday, Gayle promised to throw a party after Ronaldo's Portugal beat Croatia in the round of 16.
When Portugal win this game I'm having a few plus a party later. #CROPOR #EURO2016 #CR7 pic.twitter.com/kzfD1M5e91

The match was settled only few minutes before extra-time ended. Naturally, Gayle and other Portugal fans were delighted that encounter did not go to penalties.

The winning goal from Ricardo Quaresma delighted the Jamaican so much, he even recorded his hilarious celebration at his home. This is what Gayle did after Portugal's win...
