Wales star Louis Rees-Zammit kept his promise to friends and fellow Manchester United fans with a Cristiano Ronaldo-style celebration against Portugal.<\/p>\n

Rees-Zammit\u2019s second try at the Rugby World Cup was followed by him impersonating Portugal international and former United player Ronaldo\u2019s so-called \u2018Siuuu\u2019 move where he jumps and turns in the air, his back to the crowd when landing.<\/p>\n

\u201cRonaldo is my favourite player,\u201d Rees-Zammit said.<\/p>\n

\u201cI wear his boxers and I dress like him. And I thought \u2018why not do his celebration as well\u2019?<\/p>\n

\u201cA few of my mates back home wanted me to do it. They are massive football fans, and obviously we don\u2019t play Portugal very often.<\/p>\n

\u201cSo I said if I scored I would do it for them. But I don\u2019t want to talk about the Man United result (a 3-1 home defeat to Brighton).\u201d<\/p>\n

Wales\u2019 attention now turns to a pivotal Pool C clash against Australia in Lyon next weekend.<\/p>\n

They headed back to their Versailles training base from the French Riviera on Sunday following successive bonus-point victories over Fiji and Portugal.<\/p>\n

Those results have put them in sight of a fourth successive World Cup quarter-final appearance, with the Wallabies game being followed by Georgia in Nantes 13 days later.<\/p>\n

Rees-Zammit added: \u201cThat is 10 points, and we are absolutely buzzing about that.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt wasn\u2019t our greatest game again, but we know we have got a lot to learn. Going up against Australia we\u2019ve got to step up a gear again.<\/p>\n

\n<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen you don\u2019t get perfect wins there is always a lot to improve on. That\u2019s great.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe need that progress, and we have eight days until the next game, so we will have a good training week and hopefully be ready for Australia.\u201d<\/p>\n
