A river of red wine was seen flowing through Portugal's Sao Lorenco de Bairro after an incident at a local distillery.

On cam: River of red wine flows through Portugal streets

A river of red wine was seen flowing through Portugal's Sao Lorenco de Bairro after an incident at a local distillery.

In a bizarre incident, a Portugal town saw about 2.2 million litres of red wine flow through its street last week. The river of wine was enough to fill an Olympic-size swimming pool, as per the New York Post.
The Red River originated from a local distillery, where wine-filled tanks reportedly burst open. The gushing wine was diverted to a nearby field, preventing it from mixing into the Certima River.
The Levira Distillery, the source of the wine, later apologised for the incident. &ldquo;We assume full responsibility for the costs associated with cleaning and repairing the damage, having teams do so immediately,&rdquo; the management said, as per the New York Post.

VIRAL: Ronaldo's hug with pitch invader during Portugal's 3-0 win; influencer Speed meets his idol

Ronaldo, making his 199th appearance for Portugal, didn't add to the men's record of 122 international goals, but he featured in a touching moment when a fan rushed onto the field waving a Portuguese flag in the second half.

Cristiano Ronaldo's Portugal might have easily defeated Bosnia and Herzegovina 3-0 on Saturday in the Euro 2024 qualifier, but more than the game, it was an ecstatic CR7 fan who turned heads on the football pitch.&nbsp; The second half of the match was interrupted when a spectator ran towards the football star with a Portugal flag in his hand. Bypassing security, the fan hugged Ronaldo and touched his feet before picking up the 38-year-old.&nbsp; The Portugal captain indulged the fan with his iconic 'Siu' celebration before he hurried off the pitch, evading security once more.&nbsp; With this easy win, Portugal leads Group J with nine points, two more than Slovakia, which beat Iceland 2-1. After the game, YouTuber IShow Speed, whose love for Ronaldo is no secret, finally got to meet his favourite footballer.&nbsp; In a video posted on his YouTube channel, Speed was seen waiting at the stadium as cars passed by. One of them stopped and Ronaldo stepped out.&nbsp; The excited influencer was then hugged by CR7 and the pair even snapped pictures together.&nbsp; Moments after Ronaldo left, the 18-year-old YouTuber was still in disbelief as he sank to the floor, reduced to tears after meeting his idol.&nbsp;

The FIFA World Cup 2022 in Qatar has been a tournament of many firsts. Middle East's first World Cup tournament stood up to its expectations and delivered some of the best moments in World Cup history.
With numerous records broken along the way, the tournament witnessed some magical performances from the footballing greats and upcoming talents in the sport.
Here are some of the best moments of the FIFA World Cup 2022 -
<ul>
<li>Argentina downed by an unexpected foe:&nbsp;</li>
</ul>
Entering the tournament as the favourites to lift the title, Argentina were shocked by a spirited Saudi Arabia side in their opening Group C encounter, falling to a 2-1 defeat which also ended Argentina's 36-game unbeaten streak.
Despite Messi opening the scoring for the Albiceleste, 2 quickfire goals by The Falcons gave us the first upset of the tournament.
<ul>
<li>Japan's inspiring performance against World Cup heavyweights</li>
</ul>
Germany were hoping to make it past the group stages after the disappointment of 2018, but the Blue Samurai proved to be a different and lethal challenge to Die Mannschaft which saw them beat the 2014 Champions 2-1 at the end. Substitutes Doan and Asano scored two 2nd half goals to shock the Germans in their Group E opening encounter.&nbsp;
The Germans could never recover after the defeat and were knocked out of the group stages for the 2nd time in a row.
The Blue Samurai then also went on to register another upset in the World Cup by beating 2010 champions Spain 2-1 in their last group game encounter.
<ul>
<li>Tunisia defeating the Defending champions</li>
</ul>
With France already through to the knockout stages after back-to-back wins in their opening 2 encounters, Didier Deschamps made 9 changes against Tunisia in the 3rd match.&nbsp;
Turns out, underestimating the Carthage Eagles was a big mistake as the Tunisians went on to beat Les Bleus 1-0 courtesy of a Wahbi Khazri goal. This was Tunisia's first victory over France in the World Cup in over 50 years.
<ul>
<li>Morocco - The Dark horses of the World Cup</li>
</ul>
Starting their 2022 World Cup campaign in Group F alongside 2018 runners-up Croatia and Belgium, the Atlas Lions were not expected to make it through to the next round. However, Walid Regragui's men set the tone for their tournament when they remained unbeaten in the group stage and produced an upset by beating the golden generation of Belgium 2-0 in their 2nd game. The Atlas Lions eventually finished top of the table, having not conceded a goal from an opposition player in the group.
Qualifying for the next round as table toppers, the fairytale run didn't end early as there was more to this Moroccan side than anybody had ever imagined. The Round of 16 showed the resilient side of the Atlas Lions who managed to take heavyweights Spain to penalties and eventually emerged as 3-0 winners in the end.
The surprising momentum saw them get the better of Cristiano Ronaldo's Portugal 1-0 in the quarters as well to become the first-ever African nation to play in the World Cup semis
However, every good thing comes to an end as the fairytale run ended in the last 4 courtesy of a 2-0 defeat to defending champions France.
<ul>
<li>A finale full of twists and turns</li>
</ul>
After 63 exciting and eventful games, the final between Lionel Messi's Argentina and the defending champions France lived up to everyone's expectation. It was a Lionel Messi vs Kylian Mbappe affair which saw La Pulga scoring a brace while the 23-year-old became the first player ever to score a hattrick in the World Cup final.
With the score on 3-3 after an exhilerating 120 minutes of football, it was Argentina who won the penalty shootout 4-2 courtesy of an Emiliano Martinez save which helped in fulfilling Messi's lifelong dream of lifting the World Cup.
This World Cup had something special to it, and saw many legends like Cristiano Ronaldo, Luis Suarez and Luka Modric bid farewell to the quadrennial tournament as well which made it even more memorable for fans all over the world.

Coach Fernando Santos decided to bench CR7 and bring in Goncalo Ramos who later turned out to be the show's headliner in the round of 16 game.

FIFA World Cup 2022: Ronaldo's replacement Ramos' hattrick helps Portugal thrash Switzerland 6-1

The Ronaldo-less Portugal side has a starry night as they entered the quarterfinals for the first time since 2006 after thumping Switzerland 6-1 in the round of 16 at FIFA World Cup 2022

Coach Fernando Santos decided to bench CR7 and bring in Goncalo Ramos who later turned out to be the show's headliner in the round of 16 game.

It was raining goals as a Cristiano Ronaldo-less Portugal came to the fore to thrash Switzerland 6-1 to convincingly march into the quarterfinals for the first time in 16 years at the FIFA World Cup 2022.&nbsp; Coach Fernando Santos decided to bench CR7 and bring in Goncalo Ramos who later turned out to be the show's headliner in the round of 16 game. Ramos began his exploit in the 17th minute and later after Pepe doubled the lead in the 33rd minute, the 21-year-old found the nets again in the 51st minute of the later half. This was immediately followed by Raphael Guerreiro who converted the lead to 4-0 4 minutes later. Manuel Akanji fought for a losing cause and brought one back in the 58th minute. Ramos continued with his show as he smashed the final of his hat trick in the 67th minute, becoming the 2nd youngest man(21 years, 169 days), the first being Pele(17 year, 244 days), to score a hat trick at the FIFA World Cup's knockout stage. Rafael Leao who came in the 87th minute, netted a final goal in the extra time to thump the Swiss side 6-1 and help his team to reach the quarters after 2006.&nbsp;

A bitter heartbreak in Qatar, a distressing experience at Manchester United, abandoning the Red Devils; things do not seem to be going Cristiano Ronaldo's way off late.

Manchester United exit, World Cup loss! What's next for bereaved Cristiano Ronaldo?

A bitter heartbreak in Qatar, a distressing experience at Manchester United, abandoning the Red Devils!

Here's how the past couple of months unfolded for CR7

Only Saudi Arabian club Al Nassr have shown their interest in on boarding the Portugal great. A lucrative 200 million euros/season offer was on the table, only for Ronaldo to reject it!

A bitter heartbreak in Qatar, a distressing experience at Manchester United, abandoning the Red Devils; things do not seem to be going Cristiano Ronaldo's way off late.
For the past couple of months, it is only disappointment that has knocked on CR7's door. Ronaldo being benched, and overlooked by Erik Ten Hag, came as a surprise to his fans. Reports of his issues with Erik Ten Hag emerged; the Tottenham win saga remains unforgettable.
Ronaldo, who was benched in the game against Spurs in late October, stormed off before the Tottenham game finished, and opted out of the celebration of the 2-0 win as well.
As a disciplinary action, he was later dropped from the last game vs Chelsea before the World Cup break.
Then the bombshell interview with Piers Morgan was the final nail in the coffin post which the club and the Portuguese hero parted ways on a resentful note.
Come World Cup 2022; Qatar brought hope, his final dance at the grandest stage. In the Piers Morgan interview, the star even said, if he managed to get his hands around the elusive trophy, he would retire immediately.
That, however, did not happen. All the more, the 1-0 quarterfinal defeat came against 34th-ranked team Morocco.
While the Ronaldo-less Navigators crushed Switzerland 6-1 in the pre-quarters, they failed to breach Morocco&rsquo;s defence in the last 8 encounter.
Fans were shattered, and the footballing hero was shattered too. While the African nation celebrated the historic win, soaked in tears, Ronaldo who made his 196th international appearance, left the ground bereaved.
Was this the last time? Yes, apparently. His age, 37, is not on his side, his declining graph, getting benched in league football, and in national games, all these depict, the quarterfinal game against Morocco was his final showdown at the World Cup stage, the final possibility of adding that one missing trophy to his elaborate cabinet.
Though the talisman has 2 international trophies with his national team, not winning the football world cup is probably going to haunt him lifelong. However, the focus shifts back to club football!
The 5-time Ballon d&rsquo;Or champion would now have to give a thorough thought about &lsquo;what next!&rsquo;Only Saudi Arabian club Al Nassr have shown their interest in on boarding the Portugal great. A lucrative 200 million euros/season offer was on the table, only for Ronaldo to reject it!
For, CR7, to maintain his dominance in global football, the formula would be cracking a deal with European takers. While finding that perfect buyer would be tough, if that happens, it might just turn out to be a chart-busting one!

After suffering a shock defeat to Morocco, Portugal's greatest footballer Cristiano Ronaldo seemingly confirmed his international retirement in a cryptic social media post, stating 'the dream has ended'.
 37-year-old Ronaldo left the field in tears after Portugal lost 1-0 to Morocco in the quarterfinals on Saturday.
 And in his first reaction after the World Cup exit, the Portuguese star striker said that it was &ldquo;time to take stock&rdquo; without saying explicitly if he wanted to carry on playing for Portugal after two decades with the national team.
 He further stated that though he won many international titles, winning a World Cup for Portugal was his biggest and most ambitious dream, one that didn't come true.
 Ronaldo has been the talk of the town since his explosive interview with Piers Morgan which prematurely ended his second stint at Manchester United.

Even at the marquee event in Qatar, he warmed the benches in Portugal's last two games against Switzerland and Morocco, coming on only after half-time.

Portugal's Bruno Fernandes was clearly not happy with the officiating during the quarter-final tie against Morocco in the FIFA World Cup 2022 and ranted about the same in his post-match interview as well.

FIFA World Cup 2022: 'F*** them' Bruno Fernandes loses cool at officials after loss against Morocco

Bruno Fernandes lashes out at the referee in his post-match interview after Portugal's loss in the #FIFAWorldCup 

Here's the full story...

The Manchester United midfielder said that the man in charge, Facundo Tello, wasn&rsquo;t up to the task of such a high-profile game and also wanted to know why an Argentine referee was chosen to officiate the game while his nation is still in the World Cup.

Portugal's Bruno Fernandes was clearly not happy with the officials during the quarter-final tie against Morocco in the FIFA World Cup 2022.
The Manchester United midfielder said that the referee, Facundo Tello, wasn&rsquo;t up to the task for such a high-profile game and also raised questions about why an Argentine referee was chosen to officiate the game while his nation is still in contention for the World Cup.
"Don't touch me, I'll say what I have to say. F*** them&hellip;&rdquo; Fernandes ranted after the game as he was seen being calmed by a Portugal Football Federation official.
He added: &ldquo;I have to say that it is very strange to have a referee refereeing us from a country [Argentina] that still has its team in the competition and we don't have Portuguese referees in the World Cup.&ldquo;
"Our referees are in the Champions League, so they have the quality and level to be here. These officials don't referee in the Champions League, they're not used to this type of game, and they don't have the pace for it. They clearly tilted the field."
In the first half, there is a clear penalty on me, without a doubt, because I am isolated and never in my life let myself fall, when I was alone with the goalkeeper and could shoot at the goal. As simple as that," he further added.

It was Morocco's En-Nesyri who broke the deadlock for his side with an incredible leaping header right on the cusp of half time which eventually turned out to be the match-winner in the end.
Portugal did come close to levelling the score when Bruno Fernandes' strike hit the crossbar just before the half-time whistle, but in the end they failed to breach the Moroccan goal.
After 5 games in the tournament, the Atlas Lions are yet to concede a goal from any opposition they have faced so far which shows the resilience Walid Regragui's men are showing at the biggest stage of them all.
Defeat for Portugal meant that Cristiano Ronaldo's last bite at World Cup glory ended in disappointment.

Cristiano Ronaldo's former Real Madrid teammate Mesut Ozil has come to Portugal forward's defense after he was subjected to a lot of criticism during the ongoing FIFA World Cup 2022 campaign.
Ronaldo is not having the best of World Cups with Portugal as the 37-year-old has managed to score one goal in his team's four World Cup encounters so far. After he was dropped to the bench in the last game, there were reports that Ronaldo wanted to leave the squad and return home, but these rumours were subsequently quashed by Coach Fernando Santos and Ronaldo himself.
Speaking against the negative media scrutiny Ronaldo has been subjected to, Ozil hit out at the press.
"I really don't get where this constant negativity from the press about Cristiano comes from... The Media is just trying to get clicks, and pundits who don't have a career anymore just want to get attention with his big name and try to make him look bad... He is soon 38 years old - so what's the surprise that he doesn't score 50 goals a season anymore? Every football fan out there should be happy to have seen him playing world-class football for 20 years." Mesut Ozil tweeted.
"I don't think anyone from the new generation will be able to match his numbers again. He will forever be in his own category. Everyone should show more respect to one of the greatest athletes in sports history." he further added.
Ozil has had a fair share of success with Cristiano Ronaldo during his time at Real Madrid and thinks highly of him both as a person and as a player.
