Fernando Torres tried to intimidate Cristiano Ronaldo during the all Madrid Champions League semi-final second leg, and it didn't go well.

It was always going to take more than Torres shoving him and mouthing off to rattle Ronaldo, but that didn't stop the Atletico striker trying his best.
The pair exchanged words just before half-time of Atletico's 2-1 win over Real at the Calderon on Wednesday night, which saw the Champions League holders go through to the final in Cardiff against Juventus, winning the tie 4-2 on aggregate.
Torres also shoved Ronaldo before the referee stepped in. Ronaldo found the whole thing hilarious and laughed away.
