Serie A: Ronaldo back with goals, Sassuolo surprisingly second | ...

Ronaldo started on the bench. The Portuguese was struggling with the corona virus and recently tested negative again for the first time. The attacker didn’t need long to prove his worth to Juventus. Ronaldo came on the field in the 56th minute and three minutes later he already scored. At a pass from Alvaro Morata, Ronaldo passed around the goalkeeper, and then pushed the ball into the empty goal. He took fifteen minutes from a penalty kick, with a ‘Panenka’, also the fourth goal.

At halftime the score was still 1-1. Within fifteen minutes, Morata gave the visitors the lead. Shortly after, the Spanish striker thought he would double the lead, but his goal was rejected after intervention by the VAR due to offside. This happened to Morata no less than three times in the Champions League against FC Barcelona (0-2) last week. After half an hour, Spezia came alongside via Tommaso Pobega.

Between the two goals of the returned Ronaldo, Frenchman Adrien Rabiot made it 3-1.
