Cristiano Ronaldo seems to have gotten over Portugal's elimination from the World Cup - by spending time with his Russian model girlfriend Irina Shayk.

The Real Madrid forward could not prevent Portugal from being eliminated during the group stages in Brazil, but it has allowed him to spend some precious time with the gorgeous Shayk.

Shayk posted a selfie of the pair on Instagram as Ronaldo relaxes before pre-season training.

Ronaldo won the Champions League with Real last season but was unable to transfer club form on to the national scene as Portugal succumbed to a premature exit.

Russian model Shayk, meanwhile, posed topless for Maxim's latest edition.

And Shayk told the magazine that she and boyfriend Cristiano Ronaldo, the 29-year-old Real Madrid and Portugal soccer player, ignore the haters.

She said: 'I don't care about people’s opinions, and neither does Cristiano. Some people like you; some people hate you. You have to be strong.'

Ronaldo is a nice fellow I've heard but there is something about his whole veneer that I don't trust, he strikes me as the sort who would nibble on your ear and make you feel uncomfortable while you were trying to watch a movie. get off of me cristiano!
