Cristiano Ronaldo will continue taking penalties for Portugal despite miss against Austria, says Fernando Santos

Cristiano Ronaldo will continue to take penalties for Portugal despite losing his touch from the spot for both club and country, coach Fernando Santos said on Sunday.
Ronaldo, Portugal's all-time leading scorer, missed a penalty in the 0-0 draw with Austria in Group F on Saturday and has failed to hit the target in four of his last five penalties for Portugal and Real Madrid.
'If there is a penalty in the next game, Cristiano Ronaldo will take it and he will score,' said Santos
He is used to scoring goals, he is a winner and he also reacts well when he makes a mistake. That is what we expect from him.'
Ronaldo, who won a record 128th cap on Saturday, has had a disappointing Euro 2016 so far, failing to convert despite several good chances as Portugal have drawn both of their games
