In the 59th minute, after a good pass by Morata, the goalkeeper cheated and hit the empty net accurately. It was noteworthy that it took only 126 seconds Ronaldo to score from his return to the pitch. His appearance played Pirlo’s team differently and soon after Adrien Rabiot scored the third goal for the hosts, and the point was again scored by Ronaldo, who in the 77th minute scored a penalty from Federico Chiesa in the style of Panenka and fixed the final score.

Cristiano has scored 5 goals in 3 games in Serie A this season and is following in the footsteps of Zlatan Ibrahimovic in the scorers’ dispute. Juventus has 12 points and is currently in the second and third places with Atalanta.
