Tammy Abraham punched his TV screen in frustration after losing playing the eSport Fortnite.

Abraham showed he has as much passion for eSports as he does football after being captured by England U21 team-mate Demarai Gray playing Fortnite while away with the national squad.

The Swansea striker could not hide his frustration after being shot by an unknown opponent. Abraham can be heard shouting,"Why is the sound off? I didn't know someone was shooting at me man!"

He marches up and down the room and punches the screen twice before checking the volume setting on the TV. The scene is part of Demarai Gray's latest Instagram story posted on his account @Demarai22. He labels Abraham's meltdown as 'Fortnite problems'.
